Yes, but in Japanese.

Jose Miranda looking good in his AAA debut. So far he's 3-3 with 2 HRs.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Maeda is just brutal tonight. Yuck. 

[Aggies7]

Dropped fly ball was a bit costly 

[USAFChief]

Remember when Donaldson put us up 2-0? That was awesome. 

[RickOShea]

Something not right with Maeda, this year.  Maybe he's in love, or possibly IBS.

Does Justin have a mandated number of excuses he must use each game?

To be fair, the job requires a lot of em.

Can’t believe that was a week ago already

Tonight is a different kind of awful, though, he simply cannot stay in the strike zone.

Dry, brown grass or infinite Twins rainouts/rain delays.

 

Yes.

Nah, that is just an excuse for making up excuses.

Maeda is just brutal to watch at times this year 

Yeah. When he’s pitching.

I was waiting for the inevitable "Maeda is struggling because of the delays" excuse, and yup, Morneau had to crank it out.

Some cool sky photos. Thanks!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

oh my... 

why

[Brock Beauchamp]

LOL

[Danchat]

Cruz, what the heck was that?

[LaBombo]

Cruz not really baserunning there; more like base... exploring?

Sky photos are always favorites of mine, and the pic never does it justice

[LewFordLives]

It's amazing how this team continues to beat themselves.

Dick: “Twins doing a good job of running up Giolito’s pitch count…”

Jeffers: “Hold my beer”

And then there’s the fact that Maeda has thrown more in 3 innings than Giolito has in 4.

It’s literally every time anyone does anything poorly. It’s tiring.

The first photo came 2nd, the western sky after the rain in the 2nd photo passed through

He could be a union steward.

[stringer bell]

Giolito and Maeda have combined for one K. I wonder if the foreign substances crackdown has anything to do with that. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Nicely done, Maeda!

Rhyming phrases?

 

I'll play.

 

Five and fly.

Big girls don't cry.

'Scuse me, while I kiss the sky.

Hung out to dry.
