Wonderful game for the Twins. 

I'm watching Cedar Rapids (up 6-1) and Tampa Bay (up 4-3) on the computer with Twins on TV.

It ain’t over til it’s over. Don’t jinx it

[stringer bell]

That is how you keep that ERA around 9.

It's almost like games are 9 innings instead of less than 9 innings.

Eags 10, Vikes 7

Maybe seeing how this thing could play out vs crappy teams with the lead we have, everybody could take a break from living and dieing with every damn move that is made? Ha ha ha, I crack myself up

I don't have a problem with 9 when they don't take 4 hours to play them.

Wrong game thread window!  

[Squirrel]

I’m guessing Maeda won’t be back out?

What if you follow the Vikes and Twins?

A ton of 2-0 counts, but so far no walks.

You know I've been going to MLB games for close to 65 years, and I can't recall anyone walking out of the stadium after the game, complaining on how long it took.  I'm not saying they don't, I just don't recall. (Probably due to being 65 yrs old,)

Maybe because those that would complain had already left?

Those who feel that way typically don't stay to leave after the game.

Yes

[RickOShea]

It wasn't the walk that hurt as much as the center cut, prime, rib,meatball, served up by Maeda,

Then you already know the score?

[Squirrel]

Okay, Maeda, induce a DP ball

[Squirrel]

Should’ve taken him out

To be fair, I usually complained about having to get up early after a 4 hour game, not the game itself.

Reread my comment … I edited it. Whining would have entailed all kinds of comments about Rocco doing it wrong
