Game Thread: Twins @ Royals - 4/9/13, 7:10pm

[edavis0308]

Good thing we have a whole rotation of pitch to contact guys that can't strike anyone out.

[Squirrel]

My wife took the remote from me and put on "The Voice".

 

I said "Hey"

 

She said "What's the score"?

 

I have no argument.

 

Seriously? The Voice? If the score were 20-1 I'd still say you had an argument.

[Ultima Ratio]

Everyone see how high in the strike zone all these pitches are? Shouldn't Mauer recognize this and say something, and move the target down.

What are the Royals charging for tonight's BP?

You win the thread.

Zinggggg

He's got the glove below the knees. But, you're right, he should put it in the dirt the way Pelfrey is throwing.

[J-Dog Dungan]

@Alex: Less than we are, that's for sure.

I wish that someone would invent a remote that only works if the user has male DNA.

[LaBombo]

Did the Twins hire Steve Trachsel as assistant pitching coach without making an announcement?

[kryptik]

See what happens when Mauer hits HRs?!?!

 

Never mention this criticism of his game again.

[Squirrel]

I wish that someone would invent a remote that only works if the user has male DNA.

 

Or just get a 2nd television ... they aren't that expensive.

Something like a key fob. You can only push the button with it in your pocket.

 

Keyless remote control.

[Alex]

You guys see the look of surprise Bruno gives Mauer as he comes to the dugout after his HR? Pretty funny stuff.

[Riverbrian]

Listen here lady... Two TV's would ruin couple time.

I never thought I'd hear something remotely chauvinistic come from you.... gasp.

[Brock Beauchamp]

I was wondering when we'd get to see the 2012 version of the Twins. We saw this game many, many times last year.

[glunn]

I have been married for more than 30 years and still cringe when SWMBO reaches for the remote.

[Riverbrian]

Your Wife's name is Swmbo?

 

I don't remember that one in the baby name book.

[Alex]

Time to get caught up on Game of Thrones.

[stringer bell]

I expect Pelfrey to be inconsistent at the start of the season. I'm not stunned by his performance. However, both poor pitching and poor defense remind me too much of 2012.

[one_eyed_jack]

Tonight is actually the first game I've gotten to sit down and watch from opening pitch on.

 

Maybe I should have stayed away.

[ashbury]

Seriously? The Voice? If the score were 20-1 I'd still say you had an argument.

 

That's the show with the chairs with their backs to the performers? I could see a use for that at this game.

still haven't pushed the button... Have u?

[Ultima Ratio]

Another err....lead off hit.

 

 

Edit: Nope - officially and error (head shaking)

She Who .... Must... Not... Complete... This .... Train... Of... Thought... *collapse*

[GCTF]

Looks like the only thing left to see in this game is whether or not Dave runs onto the field.

[diehardtwinsfan]

Time to get caught up on Game of Thrones.

 

They said that this season is supposed to cover 1/2 of the book. It looks so far like they just skipped 1/4 of the book. Not a bad idea since it took a while for the first part of the book to get interesting.

[Ultima Ratio]

Escobear!!!

 

 

Now we go!

[GCTF]

Homerscobar.

[Riverbrian]

Escobar has more homers than Josh Hamilton
