Coosbain has a population boom.

[USAFChief]

I think this qualifies as insurance. 

[Jocko87]

What a call. Ump was the only guy watching who got it right.

[Mortimerkenny21]

This is more enjoyable that whatever the hell happened last night. We also had a legit starter tonight dealing.

I stand corrected , a 3 run homer by Gallo ....

Who would have thunk it ...

If we are to believe Perkins, the Twins lead MLB in 3 run homers.

Extend Gallo

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Jax hasn’t pitched in a week… but why not Balazovic with a huge lead?

Jax had warmed in the 6th, and was going to get the 7th when it was 3-0.

 

[Mortimerkenny21]

That could've been much worse.

Did i even turn the Twins on last night?

I'd guess not. Sands for 2 would be the play.

Edit: DickGlen just said Thielbar warming

Yeah…you’re getting your blowout losses confused…Balazovic last pitched in Wednesday’s blowout loss to Detroit.

But, to his credit…it wasn’t a blowout, until he pitched.

Indeed I did turn it off, I was pissed off! But I did check the game recap. If accurate he hasn’t pitched since Wednesday

You could quote it, then "like" your own post.

Edit: Apparently, you can't "like" your own post.

To his credit, the single was described as scraping the wall.
