Game Thread: Twins vs Mariners, 6/2 - 1:10pm

[glunn]

Diamond looks very hittable today -- 3 hits in 1st inning.

[notoriousgod71]

That was a Blackburn inning of 2008 if ever I've seen one.

[Riverbrian]

He threw well if throwing well means finding the wheelhouse.

 

Every ball was tagged pretty good. Good Fortune to escape without damage... Let's see if can settle down going forward.

The Twins were apparently playing indoor baseball in 2010 per Dick. He must be referring to games in Tampa.

[glunn]

Bonderman is looking very sharp today. Hitting the corners and keeping the ball down.

[Riverbrian]

News from around the league... Domonic Brown is still on fire. Another Homer today.

[glunn]

So much for Bonderman being easy pickings.

It was just one inning... Plenty of time for rusty mistakes.

 

Hopefully The Twins are more inclined to exploit them... Yesterday they were not.

[Riverbrian]

News from around the league: Matt Harvey is getting killed by the Marlins.

[glunn]

Doom!

[Riverbrian]

Doumit... Gives us the lead!

[Riverbrian]

Parm with the Double... Let's keep it going.

[Riverbrian]

Bummer... I hate it when they throw us out at third.

[glunn]

Not great baserunning by Parm.

[Riverbrian]

Dozier heating up

Actually I was Ok with it... Nobody out... It took a perfect throw.

[Riverbrian]

This is fun!

[glunn]

This is what I was hoping for in the 1st. Wife wants to go to Costco, but we need a huge lead for that to happen.

They have a Costco on Rodeo?

 

Im trying to imagine that in my mind.

Costco is a 5 mile drive, but a lot cheaper.

Heading to Compton?

When I get the flu... I like to ask for stuff...

 

Honey... Could you bring me some soup?

Honey... Can you bring me a damp cloth for my head?

Honey... Could you get one of those memory foam pillows at the store?

Honey... We need a dog... could you find a Puppy? Maybe a Sheltie? Something looks like a little lassie.

Honey... Could you turn the TV about two inches to the right?

Honey... Can you read to me what Chief and Ashbury are writing on Twins Daily?

 

FYI...usually I give her my thoughts in person.

As I understand it, you can get to Compton from Beverly Hills pretty easy, but getting back through the checkpoints and roadblocks is such a hassle that it isn't worth the trip.

As I understand it... The last time someone from Beverly Hills actually went to Compton was 1974.

[twinsnorth49]

I'm going need some experienced confirmation.

 

Hey North... Is this true?

 

Absholootely......hic...

[Riverbrian]

Diamond has gotten over the 1st inning... So-So's

[Guest USAFChief]

Perfect throw from Parms. Well played all around. It helps that Morales doesn't run well, but still.

[Riverbrian]

Seriously... I mean I'm seriously...

 

There were people on Twins Daily who were concerned about Parmelee from a defensive stand point.

 

I had no idea but they had me concerned about it figuring they have seen him in the minors or something.

 

Not only has Parmeleee been good defensively... He has been about 6 levels above good.

 

Yes you can improve but not this much. The guy has serious defensive game and I assume he has had it all along.

[glunn]

Heading to Compton?

 

Culver City. Compton is for BBQ. I just picked up breakfast on Beverly Drive -- 5 minute walk and saw 3 MILFs.

Bonderman.... ahhh memories
