Rocco pinch run for Nelson here

[LVTwinsfan]

4-0 tamp[a

that and a Gibson win, how can we possibly fail now

[LVTwinsfan]

Lots of double play balls ruined by the shift

[MNT1996]

I feel like Bert and Dick argue about the electronic strike zone every game

[GameDay]

Don't get me wrong, Sano has alot of value to this club, but he's virtually an automatic strikeout if he gets 2 strikes on him.

I just finished up making some carbonara for the wife and kids this evening. Gotta try and schedule domestic duty when we face the kitties.

Did the Carbonara have an Effect on your family?

[yarnivek1972]

I seriously would have pulled Gibson after 4. He doesn’t deserve to get a win for the **** show he put on tonight.

[mrtwinsfan]

Bremer shut up,  ur gonna jinx Duffey

[ashbury]

Batter swings above one fastball, below the next. Duffey's got some good movement.

That isht disappeared with a quickness!

 

 

[AlwaysinModeration]

Duffey knows what to do with an 8-run lead.

[MNT1996]

Duffey. Wow

[mrtwinsfan]

Gibby see what Attacking does,,   dosent he have to know that or is he just  ????  oh oh warning point almost

[VivaBomboRivera!]

 

I'm enjoying this 12-4 game. Baseball.

 

Wrong sport.  That's 4 field goals vs 2 safetys.

[Blake]

Duffey just dominated Detroit, which is what a dominant reliever should do.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Don't get me wrong, Sano has alot of value to this club, but he's virtually an automatic strikeout if he gets 2 strikes on him.

This is just demonstrably false.

[David HK]

Holy moley--

 

Just now checking into this game- did Duffey just miss an immaculate inning?

 

Wow....

[rkevin]

 

Gibson gets a well-deserved win out of this game!

As a fan, I approve of this joke.

 

[operation mindcrime]

Beautiful inning Duffey!!!!!!

[VivaBomboRivera!]

 

Tomorrow morning is a weird time to bake a pie.

 

It's 10:45 on this side of the Pacific.  Vichysoisse for supper tonight, too.

[LVTwinsfan]

That’s how to pitch to the Tigers

[VATwinsFan]

Duffey knows what to do with an 8-run lead.

Indeed.

[ashbury]

Wrong sport.  That's 4 field goals vs 2 safetys.

IALTO.

My pad will be spotless by the end of this four game series.

[Dirk Hardpeck]

<Gibson calls a conference on the mound>

 

Gibby: Who made that man a runner?

Cron: You did, Kyle. You’re the pitcher!

Gibby: What’s his name?

Cron: His uniform says Castro, man.

Gibby: I know that! What’s his name?

Cron: That is his name, Kyle. Castro, Willi Castro.

Gibby: And the batter?

Cron: He’s a Castro, too. Rookie-year center fielder Harold Castro.

Gibby: How many Castros do we have on this field, anyway?

Jason: Yo!

Gibby: I knew it. I’m surrounded by Castros!

[AlwaysinModeration]

Nothing like getting into ours in the same inning. Gibson is total trash tonight. He should be pulled.

5IP, 4 runs. Not great. But maybe not deserving of the vitriol handed out this evening.

[VATwinsFan]

Just a reminder that the Twins put up a 12 spot w/o Buxton, Gonzales, Garver, or the suddenly torrid Schoop in the line-up.

 

OK, so it's the Tigers.

[VATwinsFan]

Did Duffey and May make a bet about who would strike out the side?

[VivaBomboRivera!]

 

Just a reminder that the Twins put up a 12 spot w/o Buxton, Gonzales, Garver, or the suddenly torrid Schoop in the line-up.

OK, so it's the Tigers.

 

In two days, we could beat these clowns with a card full of minor league call-ups.

[LVTwinsfan]

5IP, 4 runs. Not great. But maybe not deserving of the vitriol handed out this evening.

12 runs in support is what saved this game, Gibson with his typical 5 innings. it gets old, no reason the Twins should sign him, so if he leaves, we’ll leave him alone
