This ump calls them wrong even looking directly at the ball over the inside shoulder!

Made Bolanos throw all of 7 pitches.

Mrs Chief just looked at me, gave me a wink, and said "Honey, let's run upstairs for a little afternoon delight."

I looked at her, and said "which one will it be?"

Run?

[h2oface]

With Lewis out, and Kepler not able to play but still on the roster, we are down to 1 from the bench today.... Sanchez.

[CRF]

I sure hope that Lewis coming out is more precautionary than injury related. I'd almost rather see Buxton go down again, than Lewis.

I used to Live in San Antonio years ago and still have family there. BBQ? Rudy's, BBQ Station, Smokeshack, County Line. Depends on how up or down scale you want to go.  Payne's in Burnet, Opie's in Spicewood, Alice's in Dripping Springs, and the Switch in Austin also worth your time. 

I’m cool with holes in the wall. Like them, in fact. Any fit that category?

Two bloops and a blast for Larnach. 

[IndianaTwin]

The Gordon and Larnach shots were the first back-to-backs for the Twins this season, according to the radio guys.

Other posters think you and I are wrong about the umps. , so we must be wrong.

[Doctor Gast]

Ouch! Darn it! Not Buxton

[Schmoeman5]

Could be a costly victory today

[RpR]

Gor-Lar are teaming up today.

Where was Buxton hit?   Wrist? Arm?

Both. It rode up his arm

Fingers. Stayed in the game, though, after Michael Salazar checked on him. Hopefully he is okay. 

[PDX Twin]

And now Gray. Where does it end?

[notoriousgod71]

Dear God the modern athlete is brittle.

[IndianaTwin]

Just realized what my favorite Dan Gladden catchphrase is. Well, it’s not really a “catchphrase,” he just uses the phrase daily.

It’s the one where he says, “We go to the seventh, and here’s Corey Provus.”

Not so good!  Ouch!   May be very costly.   Twins may have to recall Kirilloff!   
 

Dr. Gast, thanks!

[Aggies7]

Are you ******* kidding me

[Craig Arko]

And now Gray is coming out hurt.

[Sielk]

Man, just a horrible day in terms of health for the Twins...

Gray hurt? 

[CRF]

GEEZ...we're starting to look like a M.A.S.H. unit.

Apparently.

How did he get hurt?

[stringer bell]

I predict both Contreras and Kirilloff will play for the Twins during the upcoming road trip.

Throwing a pitch. Not the best news.

[Aggies7]

Never have athletes been in better physical condition, but never have they been so prone to injury. Bizarre
