He should havevbeen 1/3 to 1/2 the way to 3rd. There was no chance to tag if it WAS caught. When it dropped and took that big hop he scores easily and Martin (who was almost to 2nd since he could see it was gonna drop) is on 3rd.

Agreed. Be that as it may, I don't think he scores there; he has to start from a dead stop (he's not fast, either) and Watkins is gonna play it conservative and hold him up.

Deked by Outman's ghost bunt

Idk how you see a pitch all the way through, intend to put the bat on the ball, and miss like that.

Was it Watkins or Wallners responsibility on that play?

100 percent on the baserunner.

That has to be read by the runner. The only time a 3rd base coach comes into play is when a ball in play is behind a baserunner and he can't tell if he has time to score. Baserunners make most decisions in real time on their own

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Outman's out?

 

Is there no justice?

[Chris Hove]

That strike three swing by Outman was not professional. My was he fooled.

Julien ran to second base so Wallner had to take off for third.

Julien was right to run.  Julien's mistake was forgetting Wallner is a moron.

Wallner. You run until/unless the ump signals foul.

[RpR]

Julien Picks his Nose.

[Patzky]

Old Royce is back. Is he changing his swing ? 🥴

[The Great Hambino]

Lewis missed the middle middle cookie

[David HK]

I swear to God.  When you have a bad team, brain farts and poor fundamentals are completely inexcusable and unforgivable. 

Let's go, put a damn foot down. Martin and Outman (seems aptly named) need to be in a bus to St. Paul tonight.  Not a flight, either, a damn bus.  

Trying to find yet another way to lose in the most Twins way possible. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Lewis is not yet our savior either.

[RpR]

Maybe, just Maybe , this is why Baldelli kept the leash tight on base running till now.

[Vanimal46]

Royce easy K is the cherry on top for that cluster bleep of an inning 

[jaimedude]

Wow this team stinks in just about all categories of baseball. How do you build from this collection of misfit toys?

No he is still the same old, same old Lewis.

[Chris Hove]

The Blue Jays look like they're playing MLB The Show on Veteran mode vs these Twins hitters. Good god.

Not for those 30 PA, loses too much $$$ in arbitration...

Wallner runs like a choo choo with square wheels

I thought he was working on his counting stats? How is he going to provide for his family?

[jaimedude]

I would like to see Royce Lewis traded, but I'm probably the minority opinion on that. 

[Patzky]

Funderburk has improved a bit from his disastrous outings earlier this summer. I'll give him credit.

[Aggies7]

Kody’s extremely quietly having a great month

Technically it's the trail runner's responsibility to make sure the lead runner goes.

But it's hard for me to fault Julien for thinking "its a ball to the backdrop, FFS. Go already. "

Who's taking him in trade? Toledo?
