Yep

I would have preferred France getting to 2nd before possibly subbing in Keirsey Jr to PR, but here we are, a strike em out throw em out double play.

Hahahahahahaha

I’m trying to laugh instead of being mad

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Gonna be another one run loss.

[USAFChief]

Ball four to Lee, BTW

I like Latroy, not going to lie about his feelings. The fast guy should be trying to steal. Hasn’t once yet

Interesting how Corey and Latroy have been questioning behaviors tonight....base stealing....Castro

lol. I just can't understand how they continue to be so bad in close games. Usually in baseball things even out just a bit. Except with this group.

[Western SD Fan]

Reds need another hit so the box score doesn't look as bad as it is to the passing onlooker.  Six runs on five hits just looks terrible.

Kiersey Jr has one role and he isnt even good at it. Why is he here instead of someone else in AAA. Rocco and his bo bo must have pet chemistry guys. Could have just as well left France in the game. Kiersey isn't that fast.  Twins fans want players that can win and compete on offense and defense. Baldelli cannot push any right buttons this year. To much marginal talent.

His on this roster so naturally he stinks at his supposed best baseball skill.

[jaimedude]

7 and 12 in one run games the Twins are.

THE WALKS TONIGHT MADE THE DIFFERENCE

It was always going to be Pagan.  He is the closer and actually half decent with the Reds.  I'll reiterate that Pagan owes us a blown save or three. 🙃

Struggling to fill out All Star ballot. Every Twin so deserving to be a starter,   Hopefully Rocco will be selected as a Coach. 

Certainly Ryan, maybe Buxton and Duran as reserves.  No one else even close to worthy.

Yeah I’m with you on this. If his role is fact “designated base stealer” he’s going to need to get better at it in the majors. Because otherwise he’s at best a no-hit, 5th outfielder type.

Was about to turn on the Twins game — then remembered my doctor said to avoid high blood pressure and emotional instability.

[David HK]

Well, at least the White Sox are losing, too.  We should still be ahead of them.  So there's that.

Yeh, but then that casual observer will note,  "Oh, it was against the Twins.  Never mind."

Probably not for long, though.

AGREE....think about how the pitchers change once they leave the Twins.....Mahle...Alcala will shine...etc.

Wow another walk. 

[Western SD Fan]

Another walk.  Were the Pohlads sponsoring a 5K in Cincinatti this week?

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Not even competitive pitches. De La Cruz up next. Throw strikes to Lux!
