Looked safe in real time 

What about fake time?

[Schmoeman5]

Back to back outs at the plate. That's gotta be rare 

[IndyTwinsFan]

We're extremely fortunate to only be down by 1 here.

[Danchat]

Is our whole rotation having a post-All Star break hangover or something?!

Mariners hitters batting .800 so far tonight.  But it's small sample size.

Already regressing to their mean - BA tonight now .857.  They'll be back up to their usual .900 in no time.

Lots of us have batting averages more or less memorized in these small values.  Not so with 6-for-7, I had to run the calculator.

My hope was Ober can be the One starter to stay consistent,  Pitchers--Ryan -Gray -Lopez had 3 real  good months to start  the year,  And does  anyone think that will continue,  Hope it does but i wouldnt bet on it,,,,  got spoiled with all those close low scoring games fast games,    Seattle     Green light on 3b i guess ,  thanx should be 5-2  ,  Make em pay twins!!!!!

Gallo time to tie it up

I am no longer concerned about Alex Kirilloff’s wrist. 

[mrtwinsfan]

[Schmoeman5]

Bremer got surprised by that one . Underemphasized but he built it to a surprising crescendo
