That’s a nasty pitch

La Tortuga hit one of those for a home run.

They just saw, despite the ex-pitchers -- I did not like throwing to first -- why they have to.

Whom ever the pitcher in the  announcer's box is, his me, me, me shows a lack of team first attitude.

[umterp23]

man on 2nd, not outs.  Can't manufacture a run is awful baseball.  I don't want to hear Garlick hit the ball hard, fly ball out is still a fly ball out.  Buxton K, and Sanchez K.  Both weren't even close swinging at balls out of the zone by a lot

[mrtwinsfan]

Oh bot hold on everyone, Pagan warning

[RpR]

Totally revised defense.

[bunsen82]

Here comes Pagan.   

[bunsen82]

Damn,  BB

[tarheeltwinsfan]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo lead off walk to the 9th place hitter, with speed. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[SwainZag]

I run on the first pitch if I am Cleveland...no question about it

To a guy who slugs .256

[Aggies7]

Walking the 9 hitter. Again we go through this, wanting pagan to be the 8th inning guy so badly, no matter how many times he fails at it

2nd pitch maybe?

[wsnydes]

Walks will haunt!  Walks will haunt!  Walks will haunt!

 

We'll see how effective this jjinx really is.

You mean, like, 2 innings ago?

After they lost Game 1 to the Rockies

[SockNet]

Pagan is in? I though we were trying to win?

Why not both?

[bunsen82]

Pagan,  throw some strikes.  

[big dog]

They should have Emilio Pagan Heart Pills night as a promotion. 

[MN_ExPat]

Trouble locating the fastball today

[dex8425]

Great AB by Kwan

[big dog]

Only two walks so far! Classic Pagan. They fell into our trap!

[bunsen82]

Pagan just doesn't have an out pitch.  If he pitches in the zone, he is consistently fouled off, and his control and nibbling off the plate is resulting in walks.  So frustrating.  

[dex8425]

Put in Smith?

[Aggies7]

Closing out games is easy, anyone can do it! /s

[singlesoverwalks]

Literally banging my head aganst the desk. Closing the Gameday tab and going back to work.

[LVTwinsfan]

stop nibbling

I’m not sure of all these new fangled rules, but I don’t think you can put in a guy who’s on the IL
