Eddie! Eddie! Base rap!

gameday says “singles on a pop up to SS”

 

Must have been exciting!

[AlwaysinModeration]

The Tigers lineup tonight (facing the Indians) have zero players with an OPS over 750. The Twins’ lineup tonight has nine players with OPS over 750.

[Don Walcott]

Rocco going to get manager of the year if the Twins make it past the first round of the playoffs?

Given what he’s had to deal with this year, I’d probably go with Francona.

[USAFChief]

GIve me a break.

[bighat]

Wow, incredible catch there from Garcia.

[AlwaysinModeration]

I’m not sure that goes over the fence.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Wow, incredible catch there from Garcia.

It was a good catch. Not incredible.

 

On a related note, Buxton catches the lead off double by Leury (Leury?!?) Garcia in the first inning.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Nor in a nearly empty movie theater, for that matter.

with nothing combustible in it

[Don Walcott]

Wow, incredible catch there from Garcia.

Seemed pretty ordinary to me.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Didn’t have to leap much, but ball did seem bomba-bound

[mrtwinsfan]

Schoop - atta boy

[bighat]

There we go Jonathan Schoop!!!!!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

There’s the bomba!

[Don Walcott]

SCHOOP!! 20HRs!!

[MNT1996]

Stay hot Schoop

[AlwaysinModeration]

BOOM!!!

[USAFChief]

Schoop needs to be in the lineup against every LHer.

[Danchat]

Schoop with a 2 out RISP HR?! Wow!!

[mrtwinsfan]

 

It was a good catch. Not incredible.

On a related note, Buxton catches the lead off double by Leury (Leury?!?) Garcia in the first inning.

Watching the replay, Schoop is a big, strong, dude.

[mrtwinsfan]

[AlwaysinModeration]

First base

[operation mindcrime]

SCHOOP!!!!!!!!!!

[AlwaysinModeration]

Who knew that Taylor Rogers is the SHORT brother of the Twins?

[mrtwinsfan]

TWINS PICKUP TAYLORS TWIN,, He could be ROMO AND Hildenberg  combined

[Brock Beauchamp]

I like how this team looks almost bored every time they mash a 400 ft ball nowadays.

[Blake]

 

Dismal start.

 

How does Ross Detweiler pitch a 1-2-3 top of the first, with 2 K's?

By throwing 25 pitches in the second and giving up a 3 run bomba?

[Blake]

 

Nor in a nearly empty movie theater, for that matter.

People can get hurt stampeding for the exits on a blog? Who knew?
