Twins (Festa) @ Diamondbacks (Montgomery); 6/27 @ 2:40pm CT

[Patzky]

We don't have Vazquez so we get Farmdog.

[RpR]

I think Buxton could run around the entire diamnond in the time it takes a couple of other Twins to reach 2nd Base.

[MMMordabito]

M'kay, Kyle, you just need to hit it to the right side of the infield or into the outfield. M'kay.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Come on, Farm Dog. Get the runner in.

[Doctor Gast]

The offense has no brakes

[Linus]

Few things more enjoyable than watching Buck run.

- After this one, the season is half over.

- Let's go, David Festa!

- Margot batting leadoff, while Willi bats 8th (sigh), because 8th is where the more dynamic hitter .. cough, cough, with better numbers against lefties this season, cough, cough ... belongs.

 

Buxton getting better pitches to hit with Castro behind him instead of Margot....

Farm Dog scuffling.

Nice at bat. Feel kinda bad for Montgomery. He has to hang in there and take his beating. Ober has had a few outings like this.

He has a WS ring and a multiyear contract for millions. He'll be okay.

[Patzky]

Margot does the job.

Farm dogging?

[Aggies7]

Idk man Margot can stick around if you ask me 😂

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Double M has done a good job today of putting the ball in play. Professional at bats.

[MMMordabito]

I'll give it to Margot.  He's doing his job today.  

[RpR]

Not that it matters unless the Twins fall apart; Margo has 2 rbi, I think he should take Farmer aside and give him a few batting tips.

[Aggies7]

Boo birds are (barely) out

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

What's happening to Montgomery is similar to what happened when Lynn signed with the Twins - I think it was 2018. Looms large when you miss spring training.

[Patzky]

Royce wanted one more shot at Montgomery lol .

I wonder if Montgomery is also being a poopy-pants like Lynn.

[Doctor Gast]

Only Farmer & Lewis have no hits

[Patzky]

Noisy out is still an out. This close my guy..

Lynn was the worst. It was like he felt like he was doing the Twins a favor. Very similar to Ricky Nolasco.

And Festa. (Sorry, I don't care about that tradition.)

The wheels!

Fastest home-to-first by anyone at Chase Field this year, per the D’back TV crew. That was not a bad play by the shortstop, but it’s Byron. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Centerfield is Dead mans alley in this park

[Patzky]

It's like someone pulled Festa aside and said, 'you don't need strikeouts, you need outs.'

He’s been one of the most consistent starters over his career and he had a legendary post season. He got screwed over by Boras and MLB owners this year 

[IaBeanCounter]

I was worried when we only had one run on 6 hits.  Next thing I knew we had 6 runs on 7 hits.
