Bought a MiLB subscription the other day, got 4 Twins minor league games going at the moment, plus the MLB.tv feed.

 

Life is good.

Are the affiliates part of the package, or did you just get lucky by having the other teams broadcast the game? Curious as I've always wanted to get it, but it always seemed that there were only 1 of the affiliates broadcasts.

Kep looking as bad as we've ever seen him?

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. 

Look like those old school Blue-Blockers!

I live outside the Twins market, so I don't know what the ins and outs are. But, like MLB.tv, the minor league variant offers you any game you want that isn't blacked out by region. Tons and tons of choices, but I only care about my Twins.

Looks like only Ft. Myers is missing.

Donaldson needs to get going

Subtract 2019 and it’s about par for the course of his career.

[Mill1634]

Gibson is settled in. Going to need to work some counts to make sure he doesn't throw 7 tonight.

[denarded]

Kepler looks awful. Losing to Gibson is going to make me throw up in my mouth. Sorry for being descriptive.

[Mill1634]

Really nice bounceback inning from Happ right there...needed that after a few innings where he labored.

We’re not losing*! Happ is settling in too.

Anything you want to dump from the notebook yet?

[Dave The Dastardly]

Happ's about ready to cross Rocco's Rubicon pitch count (85). I think he'll be lucky to stay in the game past the 5th. Then we'll be Happ-less and the bullpen will be running in Pamplona.

[jimbo92107]

Stop swinging at anything outside. Gibson is all hot about his outside slider. Get him off of it!

[Mill1634]

Gotta think Happ is allowed to pitch the 6th with Gallo in line to hit, and all 3 lefties being used yesterday. Plus you have Thorpe going tomorrow who may give you 3 innings, or may give you 6.

Willians!!!!! 

[Mill1634]

WILLIANS!!!!!

Why is Astidillo still playing

[h2oface]

Checking in. No Kirilloff, the hot lefty? Right handed pitcher. Astudillio, the short right handed batter playing first. SMH. Amazing. And Kepler leading off. MOY seems a long time ago.

 

Edit: I guess I know nothing.

[Vanimal46]

Pretty weird flashback game to bring up when the FR Experience blew what Dick thought is Gibby’s best start as a Twin.

[ashbury]

TORTOOOOOGA!!!!

Man, I hoped you sent that before he homered.

Kirloff is hurt

no, I’m not that guy

[SwainZag]

Damn, Josh juuust missed that

[ashbury]

Looks like only Ft. Myers is missing.

Their game is already completed tonight.
