Twins (Lopez) vs Dodgers (Syndergaard): 5/15/23, 9:10pm

[PseudoSABR]

I see Phil Cuzzi still is treating the Twins fairly after all these years.

[RickOShea]

We definitely have an issue, handling success.  Too bad.

[Aggies7]

Phil Cuzzi is a terrorist

[h2oface]

Kirilloff gets screwed more often than anybody I can recall. Color me livid.

Please i hope im wrong but is this the same Cuzzi   from the Joe Mauer called foul in the Playoffs against the Skanks

Absolutely.

[CoastiePilot08]

How do you give a guy who has been all over the place those calls?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

This would be a huge save

But Kirilloff did handle it. He just got screwed.

It does seem that way

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Welp.

Maybe we can strand this runner at second?

[Montdak]

Anybody awake in the Central time zone?  Know this.  Kirriloff got hurt bad bad bad by the ump on a SF situation for a 2 run lead .  Is it gonna cost the game?

[Parfigliano]

Twins kill Cuzzi's dog or something?

[freshinthehouse]

I would've loved to see have seen Solano bunt there, but oh well.  He's gotta try make some kind of contact there.  Give Duran a 2 run lead and let him cook.

1:23 here on the east coast

[Aggies7]

Bad bad 0-2 pitch

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

buncha B.S. and I'm going to bed

[AceWrigley]

Twins couldn't manufacture a fart at a bean festival let alone figure out situational run scoring.

[h2oface]

0-2 and vazquez calls an off speed.  I HATE VAZQUEZ'S CALLING.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Chief might also have something to say about that 0-2 offering.

 

Not sure what...

[mrtwinsfan]

Come on Duran.

[USAFChief]

I never again want to hear how good a game Vazquez calls.

That 0-2 pitch was a pathetic idea.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

lol where was that runner standing

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Another pick off.

No, sorry. They already used up most of their substitutions, for one thing. I mean, if the story is that Correa has a terrible ankle or back or whatever and literally cannot run without pain, then let's hear that story. 

Actually brilliant managing by Rocco to save Taylor for just that situation when most would think he would come in earlier after Castro hit. It's the role I would love to see him in if Buxton could play center. He's a weapon as a situational runner.

Nothing to do with Correa ankle.  He's slow.

Maybe it was supposed to be far out of the zone?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Let's see if we can get another lead?

[AceWrigley]

I figure Vazquez gets finger cramps and can only put down 2 fingers at times.

[CoastiePilot08]

That second run in T10 would have been nice …

[CoastiePilot08]

That being said, fire Phil Cuzzi into the sun.

Probably. The bottom just didn't drop out of it like it was supposed to.
