Pirates (Skenes) vs. Twins (Ryan) 7/11 7:10 PM CT

[Parfigliano]

To many pitches

[Aggies7]

Not gonna be much of a long pitchers duel with Ryan nearing 30 pitches already 

[OvertheHill]

It’s these awful jerseys 

[Blyleven2011]

To many pitches , not the Allstars arm I want to see ...

[David HK]

Woof-  Joe's not exactly throwing darts so far.

[Aggies7]

34 pitches. Sit him now so he doesn’t miss the ASG 😉 

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Real efficient, Joe.

[Doctor Gast]

Ryan got out of the 1st inning but tallied 34 pitches, hope the BP is on

I'm hoping the same from Skenes, but I'm definitely not counting on it, knowing the "quality" of most of our hitters.

[Tlaker]

Right down the middle Buck!!

They are ugly

[David HK]

Skenes slightly more efficient.

[BrokenCompass]

Unreal to see Skeezy with that 4-7 record. Criminal!

Same number of outs in 1/3 as many pitches

[Blyleven2011]

O-0 after 1 inning ...

Pitchers duel so far ...

[David HK]

Rough first inning on both sides of the ball.  

But I guess it's hard to be taken seriously as a major leaguer when your Mom dresses you like a smurf.

Should take the roof off US Bank stadium 

The hot rumor is A-Rod and Marc Lore are building an outdoor basketball court for the Wolves to have a distinct home field advantage 

[thelanges5]

Calm down Joe, take it easy. 

Matthew Leach:

More walks by Ryan in the Pirates' first 8 plate appearances tonight than in his previous 19 innings.

O-0 after 2 innings ...

Pitchers duel so far ...

We at least didn't strikeout in the 2nd ...

Did we face skenes at all last year ???

[OvertheHill]

Wallner 167 AB, 9 HR, 15 RBI .205 AVG 

Hard to believe. I don’t expect that he’s going to reinvent himself and be a high average type hitter, but this isn’t going to keep him in the majors. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Pirates have lost 6 in a row  --  Twins at the least  gotta get 2  out of 3  Pirate hitters are harder to watch than our inept guys   not expecting Twins to get more than 1-2 of Skenes

He's decent at hitting solo homers, but that's about it.

[Patzky]

Whoa Cubs. You could have sucked like that yesterday.

[mrtwinsfan]

Batters ,  can ya make it any easier ??   all 1st pitch hero ball swings

[Tlaker]

One pitch at bats will not cut it against this guy Clemons
