Where was this team during the last three months? We are unstoppable.

They've had to play teams not named, "Detroit?"

Speaking of these , um "badges"?... is there a way in settings to SHUT THEM OFF?! 

Dude... first give me a few more minutes to bask in the glow of achievement from fulfilling my lifelong (or at least week-long) ambition of being an honorary Wichita Wind Surge.

[RickOShea]

I admit mentioning a sweep.  I'm putting on my 'hair shirt' and have summoned the kings henchmen to Canterbury to flog me.

[h2oface]

Rogers just made his own inherited runners..... inherited them himself, and then let them all in!

[jkcarew]

Ladies and Gentlemen…your 2021 Minnesota Twins All-Star!

[RickOShea]

Did someone say, Rogers, to the ASG?

Yikes. 

[a-wan]

If you take away the first 10 pitches Rogers threw one heck of an inning.

[h2oface]

3 Ks. Struck out the side. That will give them something to write about while he is having one of his (gulp) best years.

[Aggies7]

Man, that’s brutal. And shocking

We've all been there.  And besides, the Henchmen department's still not full staffed, so you might have to be the one to... Ehh, you know what, never mind.

If you're leading off the inning, down 1 in the 9th, and ground out on a 2-0 pitch, you should have your children taken away.

It sounded to me like 'Cleanup in Aisle Rogers', but there's a lot of background noise here.

[cHawk]

This team is the MLB’s Falcons

- Blows leads regularly (duh)

- 6 ALCS appearances (ATL has 4 NFCCGs)

- Wastes Talent (duh)

 

[Danchat]

Rogers making the case for not deserving to go to the all star game...

 

[USAFChief]

Ben Rortvedt. 

 

As expected.

I have friends with a 21 year old at home who are dying to ground out on a 2-0 down 1 in the 9th.

[RickOShea]

I aint typing SQUAT.

[h2oface]

It's those massive arms of Rortvedt. If they hit the ball, it can go.

[snotboogie]

This is the strangest friggin’ game I’ve been to. 

[LVTwinsfan]

Good for Rortvedt. Bremer was going on and on about not having a third catcher, so Rortvedt had to bat

[Aggies7]

Hahahah that’s unbelievable

Like even as a spectator...

[cHawk]

Yippee.

On the other hand, is there a single decent reliever in this pen? How can all 8 of your pen arms be bad?

[Squirrel]

OMFG!!!!!! Rortvedt!

Why we should never give up!

Does Rogers get his kids back now?

I'm crying, just like I'm watching the movie "Rudy".

Maybe not for long when they find out that I'm an honorary Tulsa Wind Surge.

[h2oface]

End this please, Josh! No tenth inning. You would have to start on second, too!
