Pretty sure the rules forbid that. 

Gordon, IMO, is one of those athletes that is so smooth he doesn't look like he's running or playing hard, but he is.

When I saw Carew play, I thought the same.  Carew didn't chug and pump his arms when he ran.  He glided with excellent speed.

Sano is flashing the leather at first though. Nice play there and on the foul ball earlier.

[AceWrigley]

Wonder what the Ober/Unber is for this game.

[lecroy24fan]

Nice of Smalley to say that Donaldson being out of the game is easier for him because he keeps calling him Bryan. Absolutely uncalled for.

[USAFChief]

"Right calf tightness."

 

As expected.

[AceWrigley]

John Smalley is the worst.

Jorge "hitman" Polanco.

Oh boy, Donaldson’s out and the turtle is going to attempt 3B again. 

Donaldson is injured? Calf? Hamstring?

You weren’t fascinated with his story of mixing up Josh Donaldson’s first name?

[AceWrigley]

Oh my head, Astudillo takes a walk.

[mnfireman]

Astudillo with the BB, as unexpected as base hits with RISP....

[USAFChief]

I wonder what the kangaroo court fine will be for walking Willians Astudillo?

Joshdonaldson has a first name?

[Brock Beauchamp]

Astudillo walked, is that legal?

And now the radio guys pissed that Astudillo walked and broke some streak. 

And people think this cynicism is only on Twins Daily!

Yes,  how selfish of him, eh?

[stringer bell]

What short round guy is wearing #64. That guy walked, so it couldn’t be Astudillo.

[SanoMustGo]

wow, up by a FG

[RickOShea]

Bremer overthinks way too much.

[AceWrigley]

An Astudillo walk. A non-Gordon stolen base. What-the-heck!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Tagging up, small ball, taking the extra base...

Baldelli must have held a team practice today ??

or a team nap

I dig the radio commercials where Gladden sounds like he's voicing it in from radio-free Kerplunkistan or somewhere.

[AceWrigley]

I suppose Polanco scoring on the ground out = a manufactured run. This game is weird.

[AceWrigley]

Berrios fielding a foul ball, probably yanked something and will miss his next start.

They said calf... ?

[AceWrigley]

Godoy mate.

[AceWrigley]

"Swing and a miss and down he goes." I never get tired of that one.
