Giolitto chewed Larnach up there and spit him out. Trev's not the guy you want up in a pressure situation, that's for sure.

We have 8 more innings to go …

Sox announcers are already proclaiming they are going to win

Agreed, but I do like the fact that Rocco is getting Gordon and Larnach in the lineup every day. We need ot see if one of them can fill one of the gaping holes in this lineup and playing them is the way to find that out. Larnach has been swinging the bat pretty well, just think he might be overthinking things.

Got Giolito above 25 pitches for the first inning. 

We’re chipping at him … hope his rust gets in the way next inning

2 strike count and you take a pitch over the middle of the plate?  You should be in protect mode.  

Larnach hit a Texas leaguer yesterday night on an "excuse me" swing and the next thing you know everyone thinks he should be playing every day. He runs into a few, sure, but the kid gets eaten alive more times than not. So many fans desperately want him to be good, but since last June we just haven't seen much at all from him. Guy should be in St. Paul, time to look at Lewis and Miranda.

I don't know if they changed their philosophy or policy this year, but at Chase field they don't show the replays of close plays on the stadium scoreboard.

Twins want to keep Lewis at SS as long as they can and Miranda has not hit this year. Larnach exit velocities and barrells have been among the best of twins hitters this year.

Of Sox announcers or red jerseys?

I couldn't stand Hawk ... he was HORRIBLE ... and that's being kind ... but the current team are actually pretty good. I don't have a choice, when the Twins play the Sox, but this announcing team is good ... I used to mute the tv when Hawk was their announcer

He was the main reason that I upped my MLB.TV subscription to get the away broadcast as an option.
