GAME THREAD: Seattle Mariners @ Minnesota Twins, 11 Apr 2021, 1:10 PM CDT

[MVP Nick Punto]

Does Seager EVER close his mouth?

How's he supposed to sing all his hits like "Her Strut" and "Old Time Rock & Roll" with his mouth closed?

[USAFChief]

Wouldn't let Shoemaker pitch to Trammell.

Night Moves. I think he wrote it about me.

[USAFChief]

I don't blame me.

 

I blame Rocco.

 

That was stupid. In the extreme.

[Nine of twelve]

One batter too late, Rocco. Sometimes that happens, I suppose, but it looked obvious to me that Shoemaker had hit the wall.

[Danchat]

This is why Rocco usually pulls his guys sooner... this went from a decent start to a bad one pretty quickly. Can't afford to drop another lose game to a bad team.

[insagt1]

uh-oh--well a Sano HR WOULD be meaningful now....unfortunately. Twins in a lot of trouble.

[NorthwestTwinsFan]

I'm unable to watch the game and just saw that Shoemaker was ejected.  Anyone know what happened?

I thought Marmolejos hit the wall...

Not "ejected."

 

"DEjected."

[twinssporto]

Maybe Sano could pinch hit for Mariners this inning...

[twinssporto]

 

Not "ejected."

 

"DEjected."

"Re" jected is the proper term I think.

 

 

[Nine of twelve]

I'm hoping everybody gets injected.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I think he argued ball/strike calls.

 

Announcers thought one early in Seager's atbat was called high, and that irked Shoemaker

I plead Sgt. Schultz: I know nothing! I know nothing!  But I think he was kicked out for pitching poorly.

[Nine of twelve]

Great job by Stashak.

[twinssporto]

 

I'm hoping everybody gets injected.

Clemens, McGwire and Sosa already did that. Didn't work out so well.

 

Protein shakes are probably safer.

[NorthwestTwinsFan]

 

I think he argued ball/strike calls.

Announcers thought one early in Seager's atbat was called high, ans that irked Shoemaker

Thanks for the update.   I figured it was probably something along those lines.

New pitcher: If he lasts ten innings his pension Will Vest.

No play for Mr. Gray!

 

Love it!

[Dr. Evil]

This ump behind the plate has been a bit inconsistent and I think Shoemaker had enough.

[MVP Nick Punto]

Night Moves. I think he wrote it about me.

Still trying to lose those awkward teenage blues, are ya?

[IndianaTwin]

 

We are working on a big home improvement project. My job now is to convince my better half that it needs to include a shrine to Byron Buxton.

 

Tell her the alternative is a shrine to you...

[USAFChief]

 

This ump behind the plate has been a bit inconsistent and I think Shoemaker had enough.

Today's home plate ump has been really, really, good.

[snotboogie]

 

Tell her the alternative is a shrine to you...

Brilliant!

[twinssporto]

 

This ump behind the plate has been a bit inconsistent and I think Shoemaker had enough.

My wife has been a bit inconsistent with her "Honey do list" lately. I told her I had enough and she rejected me. Odd how that works...

[IndianaTwin]

I hope Byron doesn't get flustered when the "Can Buxton hit .500" media hype begins. 

[h2oface]

Leave him in Rocco.... until he blows this game with his excellent control.

[Dave The Dastardly]

I wish. Kind of tall but could use a few pounds, black-haired beauty, 1962; all in my ballpark. Don't read too much into that last part.
