soft dirt=   again

Right? The ball took a really high bounce after hitting in front of the plate and Trevor said it’s soft there. Huh 

[Aggies7]

Haha the Sox are so bad. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Nice job Larnach

Atta boy Correa

I don't have TV access, so this is one of the first games I've been able to see. Night and day seeing him leg that to second compared to last year.

EDIT to add: And score from second. 

[Joe A. Preusser]

Not bragging, but I kinda called a Twins win like 3 innings ago.

I think the LaRussa experiment really set this franchise back. They were poised to be really good, then hire an old guy to suck all the life out of the room.

The Cease trade, just the final nail in the coffin

I think they're still driving nails in. LaRussa back with org in any sort of role is a joke. Struggling with player development and then promoting the director of that department to GM is hilarious as well. They're a clown show.

Correa is just a joy to watch.

[Jocko87]

It just wouldn't be right for all that consternation about bringing Duran back without him getting to play too.

[stringer bell]

The bad baseball from both teams was a team effort. So too, has been the comeback by the Twins.

[RocRedWing]

watching correa run without pain again is such a joy. can't imagine how good it must feel for him too!

[KirbyDome89]

Sox just bringing in guys off the street at this point. 

[RocRedWing]

farmer nuke please. a grand salami for the salami!

[Aggies7]

Whoever thought Cole sands would ever be an 8th inning guy 

[stringer bell]

Wow. Sands for the 8th with a one-run lead. 

[IndianaTwin]

Steve Stone after Berroa hits Castro: "This will keep your walk total down." 

That pretty much sums up the season so far for Stoney and the Sox. 

 

EDIT to add: And now they've moved on to showing Brewers-Rays boxing highlights.

I still don't trust Sands. I know that's easy to say after the HR.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Crap

[Shaitan]

Guess they should've optioned Sands for Duran. 😄

[Aggies7]

This has gotten very ticklish 

[KirbyDome89]

Don't worry folks, the Sox still have to trot their bullpen back out there....

[Parfigliano]

Hey Sands maybe try to miss the barrel

[Azviking101]

I knew Sands couldn’t fool me 

good to have him back 

[Shaitan]

But I don't want extra innings. Still hate the ghost runner rule. I honestly think I'd rather have ties.

Well, maybe not...

He isn't. Obviously.🤥

[IndianaTwin]

I'll go ahead and say it for the rest of you. Mendick would have had a triple if the ground wasn't so soft.
