Game Thread: Twins @ Tigers, 5/1 - 12:08pm

[adjacent]

I am just following Gameday. Is the strike zone as inconsistent as it shows here?

[big dog]

Thanks. The replay did not persuade Gladden to change his mind.

 

A decent inning by Diamond, all in and done.

[denarded]

I was listening to detroit broadcast and they both agreed cabrerra wasn't hit.

[Riverbrian]

Good first inning... I Approve

Doesn't someone post this in every game thread? I'd take that an indication that the answer is "no"

I haven't seen any B/S calls that have looked outrageous yet. Ball 4 to Fielder was close, but I thought it was outside.

[Riverbrian]

Nice... For an old guy

[snepp]

A Jamey Carroll XBH. It's definitely our day.

[big dog]

Another RBI double, by Carroll. Let's hear it for the getaway-afternoon-game-after-a-night-game-getting-out-of-town-soon-and-resting-the-regulars lineup!

[Guest USAFChief]

Diamond really bore-down and gutted that inning out, what a gamer, that's what stoppers do.

 

 

 

 

cliche count: 4

If you just stay within yourself, don't try to do too much, do the little things, keep after it, and take it one post at a time, I bet you can get that cliché count up.

[big dog]

Sanchez out of the second, throwing only 59 pitches so far.

I'm not worthy.

With the cliche count in effect. How many Cliches before Gardy pulls Diamond?

I hope just one: "You've given us 8 good innings, Scotty, the BP can finish this one up ferya."

[Riverbrian]

Number Fun... With April in the books... Eduardo Escobar has more Home Run than:

 

Victor Martinez, Allan Craig, Jedd Gyorko and Eric Hosmer combined.

 

I know this because V-Mart, Craig, Gyorko and Hosmer are all on my fantasy team.

*yawn* Just woke up. Before I start work today, I'll check on the... holy smokes, they're playing, and the Twins are up 3-0 already? Hope I don't jinx anything by posting.

You best not have, or you will receive a pm filled with expletives.

Must be nice living in American Somoa.

Oh he'll receive something all right, but it won't be a pm.

[Riverbrian]

LOL... Doumit with a stolen base. You don't get to type that very often.

[snepp]

Will it be non-refundable, and to the chin?

You win the internets.

If it's stupid, and it works, then it's not stupid.

First time he's stole a base since 2010. He now has 11 for his MLB career.

[Guest USAFChief]

Totally off topic: NYY placed Kevin Youkilis on the DL with a "sprained spine." Eeeewwwww.

[Guest USAFChief]

If it's stupid, and it works, then it's not stupid.

I'm not calling the poster stupid, but that's just stupid.

[James]

I would threaten to track him down and threaten him with something else, but that seems like a lot of work and I'm feeling fairly lazy today.

[ashbury]

Only 16 pitches for Anibal that inning. At this rate he might still go 5. Twins need to put a stop to that.

[ashbury]

Works for me.

[snepp]

I would have moderated him to no end, but I was too busy staring at his avatar.
