It's the Spongebob Movie, the character Dennis played by Alec Baldwin.

The short clip was somewhat reminiscent of the guardian of the time portal.

 A 2-0 Deficit feels insurmountable. 

Keep it up. We need another...

[Danchat]

What, Winder's pitching in the 4th? Why isn't he keeping his spot in the rotation?

Lewis and Miranda could not be hitting any differently right now... wow, gotta get Lewis in the lineup every night! The kid's looking like a #1 overall pick so far.

Why was bundy pulled so early? Tuned in late

[Mill1634]

Winder getting lit up by oakland was unexpected

Guessing cause he missed some time from COVID

[Ratchedstrapped]

Only one of 4 minnesota big 4 pro sports teams playing, do you think we can win tonight?

[Aggies7]

Winder doesn’t have it tonight.

[Mill1634]

Interested to see if Winder gets another inning. Probably want to get him to 60+ pitches if the plan is to continue to use him as a starter, but he's really fighting it right now.

[Strider]

Late night Minnesota what’s new

[USAFChief]

Sal Perez to the IL and  miss the Twins in KC this weekend.

It is a shame for KC. He destroys Twins pitching

Well, to be fair, it's darn hard to hit solo HRs when there are baserunners.

You’ve got a point there. Not a good one, but a point nonetheless 

[Buffy the Twins Fan]

Dang that was a beautiful at-bat from Max

[LVTwinsfan]

That could easily have been a triple

That's why I said it was a shame for KC. I know Twin pitchers are ecstatic 

[Aggies7]

Nothing is funnier to me than watching a pitcher launch one into right field on the dribbler up the line

Nothing??

 

I'm hurt.

[USAFChief]

I wouldn't have Winder out there.

[Aggies7]

I don’t know, guys, but I kinda think Royce can play the infield

Perez has been my favorite catcher to watch, , Hope he is not out long
