Game Thread: Astros v Twins, 4/8 @ 1:10pm CT

[mrtwinsfan]

Mahle needs to keep up the good starting pitching tomm,  Cause were not gonna see the same Relievers as the last 2 games,,   Good win !!!!

 

[stringer bell]

That game went long. Two and a half hours.

[Mortimerkenny21]

Ooofffdahh! Now you guy's don't have to find out where I live and come whoop the tar outta me! Thank goodness! Winner!

[SanoMustGo]

It looks like we have better depth this season...anyone disagree?

We got 2 wins against the Astros.  Whatever happens tomorrow happens,  but in any case this was a great series for the Twins.  The Astros also have gone through a ton of their relievers as well.

Honestly, the best pitched game I’ve ever seen with 6 runs allowed. Ryan was great…4 baserunners in 6 innings. Got beat once by arguably the best hitter in the game. Relievers fantastic (with the one exception).

Winner, winner, pork-enchilada-casserole dinner.

Closers are overrated anyone can do it 😉

"How locked in are you at the plate?"
Vazquez: "It's a team effort."

I was predicting those words before he uttered them. Uggggggggh.

Bull Durham is the definition of "it's funny because it's true."

Yesterday Kyle Farmer thanked the fans for making his walk-off possible.

Was the question asked of him as a catcher or as a batter?

And he made Jack Benny/ Mel Blanc reference to boot.

Has there ever been so much wit in so short a response?

True.

 

Wonder if it is the same with other team's coverage, or just because of the Bally Sports current situation?

 

Or perhaps associated with shorter games timewise?

 

Radio coverage would continue last year.

 

Anyway, thanks for the company!

Sorry for nodding off a bit, there.

Heh, I took a shower in the middle of the game, but with my newly renovated bathroom, could still watch the game …
