Damn quick Carlos

[IndianaTwin]

Listening on the radio. How large is the crowd? Or is it just an active crowd mic?

Thinking of driving out of town tonight for better darkness. 

Good idea, we're far enough from Duluth that you can just see the halo of the "city" in the western sky

I heard them say over 35K.

[h2oface]

OK money man. How about a dinger!!!!

[wabene]

You gotta say the shirt was effective, we did score 8

Guess I'll have to keep it on

Put some pants on that feller

[h2oface]

NOW GET RID OF THAT EMBARRASSING PIECE OF MEAT after the equally embarrassing performance.

I love Castro but it looked like there were two balls that dropped in that Buck would have caught.

I'd love to give you a hug while wearing my new shirt!

Varland should get Jackson's spot.

It would be nice to see him in the bullpen again, if he can pick up where he left off last year. Might be needed with some relievers flaming out.

Let's get back to reality.  As I said at the beginning of the year,  reclamation projects and guys no one else wanted. That's who we have in our bull pen.  Absolutely can't lose games like this. 

[Peter]

Unacceptable crushing devastating loss😭😢You can’t ever lose a game like this ever!!! This loss possibly is season ending. How do twins bounce back from this?😥😭😢😭

[RpR]

Ah, there is no wine like May Whine.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Cleveland is going to fall off a cliff and the Royals don't scare me at all. If the Twins stay reasonably healthy, they will win the division. But anything after that, it's not happening with this pen. And that's a bitter pill to swallow after we were told it was the best in baseball and the focus of the front office attention this winter.

Agreed.    I’m not that impressed with Okert.  Relief pitching are terrible.   Very embrassing!

Can't lose 6 run leads to bad offensive teams on the road. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

So... What happened?!

I turn my back for a couple hours with a healthy lead, and next thing i know, we lost?

Sigh... Apparently we can. I know this because we did.

 

But i didn't see it, so i am curious how, too.

Bullpen served up sugar cookies and milk.

You turned your back.  Obviously your vault.

Point taken. No turning back now.
