How was that second run on the defense?

[Patzky]

That's a good quick inning and Martin leads off.

Royce goofing off with his throw?

He got the out, not every thing Royce does is bad.   

[Patzky]

Is our challenge busted tonight?

I was wondering the same thing.  Have the hitters been told not to challenge pitches anymore.

[Patzky]

Rasmussen probably finished after this inning.

Yeah, paying extra because the better half is a brewers fan and had to add on brewers.tv living in Wisconsin. 

[Patzky]

How the heck did he do that..

[Patzky]

Hate to hang him out to dry but we need another inning from Taj 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

4-1...

 

We can still come back, can't we?

(Scouring the lineup card) "No."

[Baumer67]

Rays get big hits, Twins get 2nd and 3rd no outs where a ground ball to the right could possibly get you 2 runs if you go it twice.  The opposite happens and you strike out twice and get nothing.  This is the Twins in a nutshell.

[mnfireman]

Nice play right there!!

 

[HarmonK03]

@Patzky did you like that play from Lewis better?

 

[Over The Hill Again]

Royce trying to win me back with a nice play in the field. 
 

Won’t work though. 

[GeorgeLooney]

Lee is starting to look like the hitter we saw in the minors. Probably gave him the kiss of death.

They could have taken control of last night's game right off the bat with three, four runs. Nope. Same here one single would have made it smoke run game. One sac fly even.. FFS. Are they pressing because Caratini doesn't trust Clemens doesn't trust Royce? So they have to do it all themselves? Turns out.. they do.

Baldelli refused to let a young guy go ,  Shelton been far from perfect but if they keep getting the young guys chances to see what we got ,  the dead weight  hopefully  gets sorted out for mainly Next year ,  

[Patzky]

I do admire the fortitude of Joe and Taj to stick with it on nights where they're getting hot around. At least they are saving the bullpen for our one or two wins a week.

I have little issue with Shelton's game managing.. very hands off actually and the lineups largely make some sense.
