Game Thread: Twins (Ober) v Red Sox (Crawford), 6/20/23 @ 6:40 CT

[USAFChief]

I wouldn't bid on that bench made from 2020 balls and bats. I'd be afraid of getting covid from it.

The best parts of any game thread have always been those that have nothing to do with the game, or even baseball, but simply life.

Fastball down the middle for strike 2 -- you'd think he would be looking for exactly that pitch.

[CRF]

WOW! Just putrid. Leadoff double and nada. Sad. 

[IndyTwinsFan]

AARGH!!!

This team defies both explanation and logic.

At old County Stadium in Milwaukee, I stayed out of the bleachers when Cubs were in town. An invitation to trouble, as the train from Chi-town emptied.

5 holding cells were immediately below the LF bleachers.

Based on the photos and I am a Wing snob so I can base it on the photos. 

Duffs, Gabriels and Bar-Bills might be worth a try. 

Gene's and Doc are out... They won't be any good based on the photos.

Sounds about right…., but Phiily fans make every other fan base seem like choir boys, imho

At least at dodger games the violence is in the parking lots and not in the stadium. lol

After L.A. traffic to get to the game. 

Violence can't be helped.

The radio booth is reminiscing about ball boy errors….. sigh. It has come to this….,

Philly is in a league of their own when it comes to behavior. I used to frequent Veterans Stadium for Phils games...and it was off the charts unbelievable. The Eagles games were way worse. 

[Parfigliano]

Again with 2 outs

[IndyTwinsFan]

Yet another run that the BoSox pitching staff probably won't need.

Double sigh.

[USAFChief]

Ive said it before, I'll say it again...

2 out RBI. The key to baseball.

Why can't we do that?

We seem to have lost that key.

[RickOShea]

Kiriloff pinch hit for. He'll never learn how to hit lefties.  This is completely wrong.

[USAFChief]

Don't PH for Kirilloff in the 6th, please. 

Gonna wager Solano hits off a RHer later this game.

[CRF]

The Cannonball for Hooterville is leaving soon. Mrs Douglas is up on the pole and Arnold is watching some western on the tv. I better go check on them.
