A hit and run, wow

[tvagle]

Better than a K

[GCTF]

 

I'm usually Mr. Hand. 

I'm usually Spicoli.

[wsnydes]

Listen to some Death Metal! \m/

But I like it enjoyable. Why would I ruin a good thing?

[howeda7]

That's a strike, but Berrios gets screwed out of half a dozen? Such BS. 

[Riverbrian]

 

There's a lot of series left.

 

And travel days. These guys get to go to Cancun on Sunday. 

[IndyTwinsFan]

The announcers are going on and on about Yankee injuries, never mind one of the best in the game, Buxton, has been on the shelf for half the year.

 

Not to mention the other injuries that have plagued the Twins.

 

Along with Pineada getting suspended for PED's.

 

Good grief, just put on the Yankee equipment and let everyone know where you guys stand.

I don't mind "homers" when it's the teams announcers. When they're announcers on a nationally televised game, it's much less acceptable. So far, I don't view this as acceptable.

[mrtwinsfan]

Bad ab for arreaz , 1st pitch ?

[Crackedfungo]

Smoltz isn’t a yankee lover (just didn’t do much Twins homework), but Costas is embarrassing himself.

[Blake]

Well, one things I've discovered, there is something I dislike more than the Yankees: These broadcasters.

[USAFChief]

 

And travel days. These guys get to go to Cancun on Sunday. 

Not till Tuesday, at the earliest.

[IndyTwinsFan]

They clearly did their homework on one team tonight...

But not so much on the other, it would appear.

[mrtwinsfan]

 

Very hard. It’s pretty embarrassing, really.

i turned off the volume,  does work 

[twinsnorth49]

Costas and Smoltz are wearing their Yankees jammies, that's why they haven't shown them in the booth............yet. 

[howeda7]

Costas put more effort into learning about Cuban bobsledders for the Olympics than he did in learning about the Twins. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Hey if we can come home 1-1 im happy,  0-2 = DOOM

[Pardon My Dinger]

Bad ab for arreaz , 1st pitch ?

That was some terrible stuff. Just turrible.

[tvagle]

Got one back...one more per inning may do it

[twinssouth]

I can’t stand Costas. He says Yanks will have to beat 3- 100 win teams to win WS. Twins will be no problem. What garbage

 

Also anyone notice all Yankee borderline pitches r strikes.

 

Need our pitchers to settle down relax. We can take these clowns. It’s only 5/4

Smoltz is still bitter since 1991

[twinsnorth49]

Costas is a dweeb but what's Smoltz's excuse? He actually played baseball, how can he not hate the Yankees?

Concur... You need to make it enjoyable for both teams. So far the Twins' most exciting moments have been delivered in a confused and surprised tone. Wish I could mute them.

[Crackedfungo]

I like the no ‘give up’ with our group. Gardy (Hardly) and the ole boys would have wet themselves right now and thrown down the towel or raised the white flag.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Alright Cody!

[Blake]

 

Smoltz is still bitter since 1991

Smoltz: Bitter since 1991!

[Blake]

Two World Series titles says otherwise.

 

Edit:

 

I have gone bonkers. For some reason, I read that as Tom Kelly.

 

Now I'm raising the white flag!

[AlwaysinModeration]

Big inning here. If they hold them scoreless, top of the order, I think the Twins can take the lead.

[tvagle]

Have you listened to Darling? He's just as bad as Olympic Bob

[IndyTwinsFan]

Smoltz isn’t a yankee lover (just didn’t do much Twins homework), but Costas is embarrassing himself.

And who with any knowledge of baseball doesn't know that Costas has been a huge Yankees fan for years. It should also be embarrassing for the network, too. However, I'm willing to bet he gets a free pass on that.

Good thing you have date night tomorrow!
