It's game day! Don't forget to put on your deodorant, you derelicts!

I’m in St. Loo for the game today. Quite a number of Twins fans around the Arch.

Wallner at leadoff again. I think we all better get used to this.

Hmm, well, I guess that’s what we’ve got for a lineup.

[Mortimerkenny21]

Let's go! Somehow, we can fight and claw our way back to .500! Go Twins!!

Tarp is still on the field. Very light drizzle. Brightening skies.

Great moments in, “Not Fooling Anyone”:

So what is the deal with the pregame show? I recall seeing that they were cutting back coverage significantly on road games. Is that for both pregame and postgame on the road?

Aren't leadoff guys supposed to be good avg good OBP players?

Foolish move for Wallners career and even worse for the team,

Holy cow, it's 13-3 in the 3rd inning! Judge already has 2 HRs.

[BrokenCompass]

Great job moving the guy up, France. 

 

[BrokenCompass]

Wait, the Twins are DH'ing a guy who's never got a major league HIT? 

The DH? 

[Patzky]

In the annals of PFFFFT nobody is more deflating than Fedde for the Twins..was last year too .. the bases loaded nobody out fiasco.

[Patzky]

Will He!

[BrokenCompass]

Attaboy Willie!

[BrokenCompass]

STL outfield defense is killing us so far this series. 

[exeoud]

Why is a 29 year old minor league journeyman batting 6th in the second game of the year? I'm so tired of Roccoball. And he's the DH? A guy who is literally only in the lineup to hit?
