Twins (Henriquez) vs Rays (Sulser): 9/4/24, 5:50pm

[wabene]

Louie did come in as the opener for St Paul in his last outing for 5 good innings. I think they are slightly altering his routine to prep for his impending move to the pen. Getting ready during the game is a different routine

If we mustard 5 runs a game (as on Monday apparently) would we ever see the end of the condiment jokes?

Might need Helman instead of mustard.

Our puopon cue is a year late as he signed with the cards.

This, just this…..sigh

So Julien sits, Lewis plays 2B, and Jeffers is DH versus a RHSP. The Twins are asking plenty from their pitchers with their defense. Hopefully it all works out and everyone hits the ball to open spaces landing in the grass or in the seats beyond the outfield walls.

Its stupid and frustrating.

Play second, bat second.

I generally have no problem with swinging 2-0. But as a leadoff guy, you better hit it hard.

Not pop it up.

I agree, however though he is batting first today, he probably is only a leadoff hitter in Rocco world.

Henriquez did his job. Another inning?

I know I would relish a 5-run outing, especially if our pitchers gave up 4 or less.

Mayonaise is better on a BLT.

Jeffers you can't reach that!

That’s quite a pickle. Worthy of The Onion.

As a fan, I'd like to see another PA or 3 from our two big lefty bats this evening.

Another slugfest in progress, I see. 

[Patzky]

Word must have gotten around to throw the ball two feet off the plate to the Twins batters.  Can't miss!

Another game with last nights "offense"

[USAFChief]

Watching this offense is often a cure for insomnia.
