I once heard someone say that you either like scotch or gin but not both. I have at least two friends who are counter examples. 

If you consider me a friend, you can make that three!

[stringer bell]

Two opportunities to open it up squandered. 

[tony&rodney]

Lots of runners left on base so far. Sure hope the pitching holds up.

[IaBeanCounter]

7 lob thru 4 innings

I was previously opposed to all electronic decisions. Change happens.

I was there with you. But the important thing is to get the call correct.

 

I've said this before and will say it again, Correa can sure play glove.

[CRF]

Leaving the bases juiced the last two innings with nothing to show for it. That s**t has got to stop. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Correa gotta  get the bat going,   he,s been in the middle of every possible big inning,   

[GusGus11]

Dick has gotta hang it up soon.

Hes always been bad about thinking something is a homer but it gets worse and worse and now he barely even knows who is who.

That ball hedges hit "Deep to left"...Cuts to Wallner in a dead spring running towards the infield.

[RpR]

Well I was out pulling weeds, no real grass to mow but I am tired of looking at Crab Grass, and it seems I missed a rather lively game.

Old fashioned what oes around comes, comes around.

Luplow instead of Taylor, that is different.

[Sutter50]

Taylor has a sore hamstring

Luplow replaced Gallo who got 86'd.

[Mortimerkenny21]

I just joined. What did Rocco blow his stack over??

[Aggies7]

Everyone swinging like it’s the final game of the season 

[mrtwinsfan]

Kiroloff   you are Missed  !!!!!!!!!!

[GusGus11]

Cmon Solano. Either let Polanco get it or make the play bro. Wasnt even difficult.

We got Stevie wonder behind the plate, A top of a lineup that plays like the bottom of the Oakland As lineup, and a manager and front office who refused to properly asses the glaring weakness on this roster…realistically do you guys think we will even win a playoff game? 

Gee, welcome aboard. See you in April.

Terrible umpiring with Correa and especially Gallo. Gallo got tossed first

Strike zone calls and the subsequent ejection of Gallo.

From trotting twice around the Bases ??

Our hope is one of our starter throws a dominating game.  Always a possibility of squeezing a run across, with one swing or an error, etc.

That was a tough play for Solano and no guarantee Polanco could have gotten the runner at first.

 

[RpR]

It would be nice if the Twins could two more runs to make the game grand slam proof.

Sonny and the 6th,   --   Another Re-fill needed here     Cmon Sonny 1-2-3- here

Slow down on the refills 

[Mike Sixel]

Should luplow have caught that?

[RickOShea]

I would like to see rocco go with a pitcher til he's in trouble.  These guys who automatically get pulled after 1 inning isn't cutting it, late in the game.
