Game Thread: Giants (Brebbia) v Twins (Ober), 5/22 @ 6:40pm CT

[IndyTwinsFan]

Not a good way to start the game.  Need a double play grounder here in the worst way.

[rwilfong86]

Meh.

[rwilfong86]

I think this game may already be over.

[CoastiePilot08]

JFC. Good night. 

[stringer bell]

Regression to the mean stinks. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Mulligan please, can i do it Ober

[RickOShea]

Yesterday's guardian DH loss certainly didn't motivate the Twins, yet.

Likewise.  I'm not convinced that our offense is up to scoring at least 4 times tonight, let alone more than that.

Sigh!

[CoastiePilot08]

AL Central might not have any teams above .500 by Sunday.

Yeah I'm not sure the offense can score 4 runs and that's if SF doesn't score again. 

[CoastiePilot08]

26 pitches and no outs. 4 runs. 
 

gross. 

[Robert Floren]

Can't bear to watch.

Back in late April I predicted the Twins would be below .500 on June 1. We'll see how that goes.

[RickOShea]

Chip Douglas at bat?

Yeah this could be an ugly night. Ober was due to lay an egg eventually.

[MABB1959]

At least the game is televised. 😀

[Vanimal46]

Lamonte Wade with a 155 wrc+ is so under the radar this year. Good for him. Always liked him as a prospect. 

[Irishman]

Please take Ober out NOW!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

An Oberational Oberition...

I mean an operational aberration. For Ober.

[stringer bell]

How many innings does Sands have in  him?

[rwilfong86]

31 pitches and finally an out

Appears as though today's the day.

This one could get real ugly real early.

If they can keep it to 4-0 here that will be impressive

And burn the whole bullpen tonight.

Good thing the Twins still have 9 innings left to chip away at things.

BTW, same trivia question that didn't get answered over the lost weekend in LA:

In which World Series did the winning team score more runs in the top of the first of game 1 than the losing team scored in the entire series?

Hint: there's a hint in this post.

 

I'll check in occasionally but tonight's trivia night with Chief Jr Jr at a local brew house.  I'm there to cover the ... uh... less recent stuff. Wish us luck. We've finished 3rd twice in a row in a contest with prizes for the top 2 teams.

Was it the 66 WS? Orioles and Dodgers. I believe LA only scored like 2 runs the whole series.

One solo home run at a time…

66 Orioles beat the Dodgers in 4 straight. I think both Robinsons homered in the 1st inning.  They scored 3 runs in the 1st. I think the Dodgers only runs came in that 5-2 loss. If that's not it I'm clueless

What will it take to convince ya? 5 runs?

Or is 5 right out?
