Well that was a nice and tidy 30 pitch inning.

[FlauerPauer]

I'll give Happ more of a leash.

[cHawk]

Can we not have weak groundout after weak groundout please.

[Vanimal46]

Wouldn’t mind seeing a classic nibbling blow up start from Gibby tonight.

[operation mindcrime]

Good eye Donaldson!

[LVTwinsfan]

Yep, the Nibler is back

"The Nibbler"

M-V-P

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FlauerPauer]

Buxton is turning into an MVP before our eyes.

"Welcome back to Target Field, Kyle!" -- Byron Buxton

[LVTwinsfan]

Nice play Alfalfa

[ashbury]

Well that was a nice and tidy 30 pitch inning.

As 30-pitch innings go, it was above average!

 

[twinbythebay]

The theme of the first inning: WALKS (and HBPs) WILL HAUNT

[Nine of twelve]

Well, Byron Buxton is looking like the guy we hoped he'd be.

[Twodogs]

I just wish that they'd sit Cave and lead off with Arraez. I know Arraez prolly isn't the best LF'er but it would be nice to see his OBP to lead off a game.

 

Nice shot by Buck!!!

[Vanimal46]

Yep, this is the Gibby I recall far too often.

Arraez is on the 7 day concussion list.

[Danchat]

I came to here to post the exact same, you beat me to it.

[cHawk]

What kind of swing was that

[Dave The Dastardly]

Jeez Garver! Three pitches?

[cHawk]

Garver has two true outcomes. HR or SO

[Mill1634]

Happ needs to buckle down. 

[Twodogs]

Arraez is on the 7 day concussion list.

Yep just heard that. Hope he's ok

[Minny505]

Anyone know what kind of lenses Buxton wears? I wouldn't mind something like that for night games.

They look sort of amber, but less opaque. 

[cHawk]

Good catch Polanco

[LVTwinsfan]

They are who we thought they were

Strike him out please

Sometimes you wonder if you’re where you’re supposed to be at times in this crazy universe. Tortuga’s younger bro should sleep well knowing he’s where he’s supposed to be.
