Twins (Paddack) vs Orioles (Sugano): 5/15/25, 11:35am

[Brock Beauchamp]

Just keep winning, just keep winning.

 

 

[Parfigliano]

Paddack has his ERA starting with a 4 today.  If we still see that 4 at the end of the day that's probably a big step towards a Twins win.

The Twins really need six innings from the Sheriff today.

Darth Bader and 🇫🇷 gonna wake up and feel good today? Pretty short bench.

Something is wrong with this.

Check your settings. Looks like they are set to Pacific time

Does this mean Edwin Diaz is on the Twins now?

[Chris Hove]

No France or Bader in the lineup. Sugano has been pretty good this year, despite low K numbers. What does everyone think?

Yep, that part I figured, but the New York Mets logo threw me off.

Heh, I didn’t even notice that part

I think they are going to need to call up a new starting pitcher later this week.

Most likely, Festa, they optioned SWR and kept Funderburk, which makes sense since the Twins can wait until that spot comes up in the rotation.

Optioned SWR; big difference.

Yes, big difference, I changed it. Thank you.

A happy flight starts with another win!

Over the years, Ive come to expect the Twins to sweep the Orioles in Baltimore, but last year seemed to indicate a change of fortune.  Yesterday my youngest son and I made an impromptu trip up 95 to see game two after he finished school.  We got to our seats in time to see a walk, a grand slam and a homer and the 4-0 lead evaporate.  Last year continued, right?  But no, Kody Clemens helped restore order.  We thought his go ahead homer was 95mph, 340feet, and 40 degree angle. We were surprised at the actual numbers (104/362/38).

Also, that catch by Castro in the 8th was spectacular.  Thank god they moved the fences back in left a few years ago!

Hear me out. Whenever sons of former MLB players face each other, they (sons) have to race foul pole to foul pole. The losing son's dad has to have one season's stats erased from the record books. It would make for some interesting HoF voting

I don’t think the voters are (were) actually looking at Rocket’s stats.

But…fun idea!

Also, on this topic, I think the sons of former major leaguers generally get a leg up on their peers because of their dads.

Let’s go Sheriff.

Sugano has a really bad whiff rate. Twins need to be patient and get a pitch to hit because he'll eventually give them one. Hopefully France's absence isn't a long-term thing. Worried about Bader, though. Those soft tissue injuries can become problematic.

Some of the numbers say he's pitching above his head.  Results are great.  Today would be a good day for expected to meet actual.

Lewis .247 OPS yikes

Geez, Buxton...

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Are the Orioles pumping in crowd noise?

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Alignment hit...

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Ohhhh, that's close. Really nice job by Royce there.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

He looks out.
