Bad challenge, doesn't look like it hit Cruz. What did the Twins staff see that we didn't?

No Sano, no Buxton and now no Donaldson.  We aren't even a week in and these guys already need a day off or is something else wrong?

It didn't hit him, did it?

No. Absolutely baffling challenge here - every fan watching the broadcast at home on the couch could see he wasn't hit. And Cruz wasn't even lobbying for a challenge.

Donaldson was pulled - likely injured, we're waiting on the news.

Aggressive baserunning cost him, but I don't know if I necessarily disagree with it.

normally I wouldn’t but he was out by a mile

Buxton already needs a day off?    Starting to not be a fan of his anymore.  If he needs to be treated like the princess and the pea we might as well trade him but I who would want a part time super star?

He essentially had no training camp. They said they were planning on bringing him along slowly while they still had expanded rosters

This may be the best umpire I have seen...ever

I tuned in only briefly for the top of the first, then had to go out again, but I had a similar positive snap evaluation of his ball-strike calling. I like the audible call that gives the location when it's not a strike, but I also thought a couple of borderline calls were correct. Way too small a sample size, but there's just something about this guy. Don't know if I had heard of Jordan Baker before, but I plan to remember the name.

Dobnak has been a magician so far - not sure how much longer he's going to be able to get away with this stuff.
