Just an embarrassing display of baseball so far tonight:

1.  The first 4 innings the Twins could've stood at the plate like statues because McKenzie couldn't have thrown 3 strikes in one AB to save his life.  He had NOTHING but we flailed away at balls in the dirt and pitches outside.  He was also helped by an incredibly big strike zone.  When he did get to 2 strikes (mostly because of our ridiculous pitch recognition) we would often take strike 3 down the middle.  He was topping out at 91 (maybe 92).  Ridiculous.  

2.  Poor SWR.....he had to get Ramirez out 3 times in the 6th.  How does Correa violate the shift rule.  He's looking right at home plate.  Secondly, Ramirez pops up, Jeffers stands there, and Miranda jogs into try to catch the pop up.  Ridiculous.  We then throw the ball into center field on a stolen base attempt.  Little league.

3.  Okert?  Enough said.  0-2----right down the freaking middle. 

4.  The strike 3 on Castro in the 8th was a FOOT outside.  Cost us a run. One of the worst punch outs I've seen all year.

Baldelli really pushing his luck with Margot after Farmer. the buck some hitters. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Margot survives a foul pop to walk.

[Danchat]

Farmer and Margot pinch-hit for better hitters and both got on base... Rocco wins this time around.

Ahhhhh, because he doesn't mind cheating, and hoping he can get away with it?

[OvertheHill]

Margot good PA. There’s hope.

Been using him there most recently.

 

Sometimes it is argued that he's facing the better batters. It might also be a way to ease him back after the injured list stint?

[cheeseheadgophfan]

Great throw by Jeffers....this better be overturned......
