This team looks like nothing special.

 

 

Yeah, but neither do the Tigers.

[stringer bell]

Rosario's aggressive base running nets the first run.

Maybin, Maybin not

[stringer bell]

I was going to credit the rookie ump with doing a good job on balls and strikes and then he misses calls giving the Twins a strike three and a ball four.

[LVTwinsfan]

day game too, so hot as **** and no fireworks after the game.

The only position of chief in the USAF that I know of is Chief of Staff, so can I assume you’re screen name has a different meaning? This isn’t a setup, I’m just curious.

[Linus]

Wow did the ump miss that last pitch. I think I’ve seen more of that in this short season than I can recall.

[IndianaTwin]

Rosenthal to the Padres, per the radio guys. 

[ashbury]

I like that new guy, #42, he seems to have brought us a spark. Anybody got a scouting report on him?

...the ninth, and highest, enlisted rank in the U.S. Air Force ... The official term is "Chief Master Sergeant" or "Chief".

A man of many talents. Seems to be able to be in multiple places at once

Learn something new everyday, thank you

[stringer bell]

It would have been nice to get Wisler through two innings. I hope May is good to go for the third.

[IndianaTwin]

 

Maybin, Maybin not

 

I thought was John Mabry. Or Mabry not.

That ones better

[Aggies7]

Bullpen games are ruining baseball, for me

[Linus]

Quick survey. What do you think of the Tigers traditional uniforms?

Well, Trevor May, or Trevor may not.

incredibly good.

[Aggies7]

Ut oh

[ashbury]

Usually I don't think repeating a pitch is a good idea, but on Candelario I was thinking, give him another changeup on the outside edge, just the same as that last one, see if you can get the punchout looking. Oh well, 2-1. Didn't think a 1-0 lead was going to hold up, anyway. Let's get some runs when it's our turn again.

[LVTwinsfan]

Unbelievable

[USAFChief]

Trevor may not.

[Danchat]

With our offense, this might be game over.

The Nike logo ruins it

Stupid rookie catcher, calling for a thigh high fastball, center cut.

[tvagle]

Returning to the Dentist Office for some more...I hope Falvine took a Qwik-Trip to pick up some RedBull between games

[ashbury]

incredibly good.

Same. Especially on cooler days when they dress in layers.

 

[Linus]

The Nike logo ruins it

It does look out of place. I like that they stay with them and don’t have 4 different options

[USAFChief]
