MARWIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Riverbrian]

I'm giving this first inning a thumps up. 

[Nine of twelve]

I don't know if I dare comment about stopping at four runs. I'm not sure how the jinx gods would rule on it.

[IndianaTwin]

I thought about typing a note pointing out that I’m in the Eastern time zone and it’s been a long week, so with, oh, about 17 runs in the first inning, I’d knock off early and go to bed. I may get my wish!

Keep it going!

CROM!!!!!!!!!!!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

You rang, captain?

 

exactly!

I guess I did things the right way.

[bighat]

Nice start!

[Diesel]

20!

[Riverbrian]

CRON!!!

[Mr. Brooks]

Hopefully Berrios doesn't plan on allowing any balls to be put in play tonight. Not sure about the defense that Rocco is running out there tonight.

[Danchat]

Yeah, here we go! That turned out to be quite the disastrous error!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Bombas!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

The Twins putting on a classic tribute to Josh Hamilton tonight!

[big dog]

Thank heavens someone finally hit a home run!

[Riverbrian]

You've earned my trust. Carry on as you see fit. 

[mickeymental]

texas probably shoulda delayed the game a little longer.

[Brock Beauchamp]

So this looks like it’s going to be a real nail-biter.

[Darius]

Cave should’ve swung at 3-0 there.

[Diesel]

In honor of Nelson Cruz’s time with the Rangers, can we score 30 tonight?

[big dog]

Batting around in the first inning, Berrios to pitch. Is the betting window still open? Dang it.

Time to start worrying about Berrios?

[big dog]

Good thing that window was closed. Jose not bulletproof tonight.
