This has all the makings of a 10-8 game. Are we the 10 or the 8?

Gray wouldn't dare give up that many runs. Not after the strong stance he took last week. 

[USAFChief]

Pretty bad 0-2 pitch to Hernandez but got away with it. 

Let's get some more runs, please.

A frog telephones the Psychic Hotline. His Personal Psychic Advisor tells him, “You are going to meet a beautiful young girl who will want to know everything about you.”

The frog is thrilled! “This is great! Will I meet her at a party?”

“No,” says his advisor, “in her biology class.

[Winston Smith]

Three runs and Dick can hardly contain himself.

I love the smell of formaldehyde in the morning.

[USAFChief]

Uffda.

That de-escalated quickly.

Gallo is the last one to argue balls and strikes with an umpire.  He is an absolute trainwreck at bat.

Laudner/Gaetti/Darrell Evans flashback.

Well...there goes a couple K's into the clubhouse.

Looks like Rocco and Gallo will watch the rest from the clubhouse

I think Bremer said that's 32 Ks in Gallo's last 54 at bats.  Unreal.

[RickOShea]

Ejecting Gallo immediately improves the Twins offense.  thank you.

With all the lefthanded outfielders they have I didn't understand why they signed him.

Working on my shopping list for tomorrow. Does anyone know if Whole Foods sells half-and-half?

Dick said strike 3 caught the inside edge. He didn't specify that it caught the inside edge of the batter's box.

It's usually 50% off.

I'd not give Turner anything to hit

[RickOShea]

Anytime a Twins player blinks, the opposing teams takes advantage and usually succeeds.

Turners 3/3 now and has owned Gray. I'd take my chances with Devers.

[Aggies7]

gray really knows how to get himself taken out of a game earlier than he wants, doesn’t he

[OvertheHill]

I’m not watching. Tell me about the triple. Was it legit? 

[USAFChief]

The difference in the quality of ABs between these teams is quite apparent a d quite remarkable. 

[rwilfong86]

Argh.
