??? I thought the guy had concussion symptoms. And they're bringing him in to run? 

 

Maybe he had food poisoning... or the trots..

[LVTwinsfan]

You don't send Buck here, right?

only if he makes it

[USAFChief]

 

You don't send Buck here, right?

You have to send him.

[Vanimal46]

Cave... Haven’t thought too highly of you bud. But we could really use a base hit. Preferably a HR.

 

Love,

6 outs left, or it's back to watching the Vikings.

 

"Mountain Dew or Crab Juice."

 

"Blecch! Ew! Sheesh! I'll take a crab juice."

Almost defeats the purpose of PR if you don't.

[TFRazor]

 

You don't send Buck here, right?

At this point, you literally have nothing to lose. We either play tomorrow or we're done. You send him.

[FlauerPauer]

 

You have to send him.

 

He's already causing the pitcher to think. He's doing his job.

[USAFChief]

He doesn't even go 3-2...he's not healthy.

[Mill1634]

How do you not send him 3-2

[FlauerPauer]

 

Almost defeats the purpose of PR if you don't.

 

He's pinch running because he can score on a single placed properly. Even unhealthy he's twice as fast as Cruz.

[LVTwinsfan]

no, he’s in scoring position already

Cave putting together one of the better at bats of the series

[SpicyGarvSauce]

If Buxton is still lingering with concussion symptoms, there is no chance they send him.

[wsnydes]

 

He doesn't even go 3-2...he's not healthy.

This makes no sense.

[LVTwinsfan]

Chased ball 4

[TFRazor]

He chased

And then he finishes it with that swing.

 

LOL

He can score on almost ANY single from second.

[TwinsCD]

Gonna send him, Rocco?

[FlauerPauer]

Hopefully Jake Cave's last at bat as a Twin.

[wsnydes]

 

no, he’s in scoring position already

He's not scoring on a single hit right at an outfielder. He is from 2nd.

[Vanimal46]

Sigh... Saw that way too often this season.

[mrtwinsfan]

Geez Cave 

[SF Twins Fan]

Now you have to send him. Get him to second base and see if Sano can hit something to the gap.

[bighat]

 

Honestly, I felt like they gave up after leaving the bases loaded in the first.

Very good point - I agree that was indeed the death knell.

[USAFChief]

Oh, Eddie! Jake!

[wsnydes]

FFS.

[Aggies7]

What in the absolute name of ****
