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

Accumulation took awhile. ;)

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 

I don't think he got screwed over, an agent wouldn't do anything that his client doesn't want. I also don't think it's the owners, I think it's the GMs. The elite free agents are still getting paid, but the front offices have started to realize that paying for good-not-great free agents isn't worth it any longer.

You're up 8 and you patiently work a 9 pitch walk to leadoff. Man I love this dude.

[IndianaTwin]

All the way to game 81 before I was reminded by an announcer (D’backs TV) that Jose’s cousin can sing. 

[TwinsCD]

Mr. Muchlinski is shaking that magic 8 ball in his head for these pitches.  A professional umpire should never miss that inside edge pitch and he just did to Santana.

[John Kelsey]

Ump scorecard is going to be ugly. 

[CoastiePilot08]

Man this ump is ass

[CoastiePilot08]

Shocked he didn’t ring up Jeffers

Basically, Santana should be on first instead of Miranda. Goes both ways.

No consistency.

[Patzky]

Well Buck n Willi. Let's go to work.

[Patzky]

Damn it's like Buck HAS no strike zone.

Boom!

[TwinsCD]

BUCK TRUCK BLAST

[CoastiePilot08]

A hot Buxton is such a game changer. 

[RpR]

Do not complain about the ump, Buxton should have had a K rather than a home run.

[Aggies7]

This is a beatdown 

[CoastiePilot08]

That was a nuke 

[IndianaTwin]

Twins have a 32-10 edge in 100+ MPH exit velocities in the series. 

[TwinsCD]

Buck's BA has gone up 30 points in the last week and change.

EDIT to add: I think Byron just made it 33-10. 

[Robert Floren]

All cylinders firing.  Buxton 3 for 3, + others

[RpR]

Farmer is desperate as shown by that swing, although it seems he has to swing at crap or gets a strike.

[IndianaTwin]

I assume Festa is leading the league in run support.

Hope he doesn't expect this every time out.

[CRF]

It's always nice to open up a can every once in a while.

[Aggies7]

Thank god for farmer or this one might never end

He's hearing the sound of running Brooks.

456 feet, that's nothing.... Killebrew hit one 540

Save some XBHs for Seattle
