Game Thread: Twins (Gray) v Rays (Glasnow), 9/11/23 @ 6:40 CT

[stringer bell]

Tee-hee. I don't usually cheer against anybody, but Josh Donaldson grounded into a double play in his first plate appearance for the Brewers.

[stringer bell]

Not much comparison between Gray's first inning and Glasnow's,

 

[tony&rodney]

Rays are not offering at many pitches out of the zone, the Twins did in the first inning. Swing at strikes and let the balls go. A

very difficult task to be sure.

What are the Brewers thinking 

[stringer bell]

GDP--pitcher's best friend (and Correa's annoying acquaintance).

[stringer bell]

0-2 on everybody. 

[stringer bell]

At least they made Glasnow work a little in the second. 

[stringer bell]

Gray (and the team) not sharp. 

[wsnydes]

The only place more inactive than the Rays defense is this game thread!

[USAFChief]

They haven't played TB very well so far, have they?

[stringer bell]

Unearned run in the third.

In somewhat related news, Zach Wilson in at QB for the Jets and Rodgers on a cart to the locker room. I am not one to cheer against. Tee-hee indeed.

[stringer bell]

Disappointing crowd. I know school’s in session, but this is two playoff teams. 
 

[RickOShea]

Rodgers carted off field in buffalo, after 1 series of downs.  Ankle injury, return questionable.

Maybe Joe can help

[IaBeanCounter]

Julien looks like his hoping for a BB

[USAFChief]

Even though he ended up walking, Julien taking those 3-0 and 3-1 pitches is bad baseball.

Jeffers kept that bad baseball going. This is the type of baseball that will extend playoff losing streaks.

[IaBeanCounter]

What happened to Jeffers?

[mrtwinsfan]

Baseball intellagence and Ryan Jeffers need to meet

[Parfigliano]

Pitiful  baserunning  Jffers

[stringer bell]

Jeffers? What were you thinking?

[RpR]

The old, real Jeffers is back.

[Parfigliano]

Rodgers hurt and out of game for Jets.

[GusGus11]

That was some of the worst base running I have ever seen.

Took the bat out of Royce hands and let Glasnow off with a decent pitch count. At the very least we need the guy to work for it.

Woof Jeffers.

[Linus]

Jeffers is a bad base runner. Someone needs to tell him to just go station to station. There is nothing his running is going to do to help the Twins win. 

[TWTwinsFan]

Our one-two punch starters get no help from the hitters.

[RpR]

Jeffers does seem to learn the hard-way but so far he has seemed to learn.
