All that effort for one measly run.  Only good thing is that it's better than not scoring at all.

Hopefully Texas has to work just as hard...

No way does this team enjoy any success for any extended period of time.  If we aren't catching up, we're not playing Twins baseball.

This team is just so awful with manufacturing runs. Why the heck is Gordon stealing 3B? He can usually score from 2B! Beckham needs to go back to AAA. Ugh.

Because after our "DH" strikes out, he's now on 2nd with Sandy Leon at the plate and 1 out.

I'd send him too.

But he'd still be on second for Arraez with 2 outs....

When was the last time a Minnesota player hit a first pitch home run vs watching it burn down the pipe and taking a strike.

This Rangers pitching staff must be made up of future Hall of Famers...

Most pitching staffs appear that way when facing us.

Boy the Astros must be shaking in their boots having to face this lineup.  Too bad they also have trouble scoring runs....LOL

This home plate umpire is just as pathetic as our offense is.

11 pitches to take care of the top of the lineup for a guy making his second MLB appearance 

It helps when you are getting 4 inches off the plate.

Better than Leon.....

Right. But neither one are all that likely to drive in the run. It takes a hit.

Which is why they had him try to steal third. They were much more likely to score if he's on 3rd with 1 out than 2nd.
