Do we have the worst 3rd base coach in the show? 

Where are the war stats for coaches?

He doesn't get a whole helluva lot of practice.

I am not buying that. He holds the guys with speed, and sends the guys that are slow. He is consistently horrible.

[h2oface]

And Berrios gets a strike call and it is 5 inches outside. MLB umpiring.

Sounds like he keeps fielders on their toes. Can't be all bad.

[h2oface]

here we go Sano

no pressure leading off. 

relax and hit the ball.

[denarded]

'and it's one, two, three strikes your out Sano' Done and doner

Take the 2 strikes and swing at the outside pitch for 3 pitch K. Damn.

[denarded]

Was that the fastest half inning this year?

[h2oface]

And Donaldson makes the play... on a foul ball.

[h2oface]

Celestino making progress. He didn't call off Sano.

Not counting the times we get walked off on like a 2 pitch inning?

[h2oface]

Did I hear Celestino try to call off Santana and catch his own infield popup?

[h2oface]

And it was grooved to Donaldson, but just a fly out and not a "mistake".

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Extras practice time.

That is brilliant. Worthy of AJ Pierzynski

[h2oface]

14 pitches, a 3-2 walk and an 8 pitch double to the 9-hole hitter. Why can't we do that?

[SanoMustGo]

LOL, honestly

[mnfireman]

And the train runs off the rails again...

[Aggies7]

Guys, I don’t think we’re making the playoffs 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Well.

Down 4-3. Topof 6th.

Just glad it weren't extras....

Maybe minor leadue affiliate might?

If we don't call up everyone.

[denarded]

Glad to see Morneau back in booth. Glad to see Sano hasn't skipped a beat

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Cruz!!

Jax has apparently been called up.

Said to be inling relief today, but Pinedos is being scratched tomorrow, so if Berrios gets it to the normal bullpen, we may see his debut tomorrow?

 

Silver linings!

What's Pinedos? Is that some new cereal from General Mills?

[h2oface]

Cruz says f it. I have to do something to wake up this team. (Looked just barely out on the replay but will take it)

Cruz says I need to start hitting so I can get traded out of this mess.

[h2oface]

It's about time Sano!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Sano!!!!

[SanoMustGo]

Not sure I would have let Minor pitch to Sano in that situation

[SanoMustGo]

I really hope they win this game, I don't see another win for 7 games.
