If they call the game (they won’t) might that get Rojas the win?

And give SWR the save?

No still have to go 5 IP as the starter to get the win.

With the lengthy delay, we will now have to see how long Sim will go.  Prior to the rain delay, I would have guessed he would piggyback off of Rojas and try get through the 7th.

Yeah, I remember looking at the bullpen pitch chart and wondering who would be available.  That was before I say SWR was moving to the pen, but if he's done for the night we better hope that rain comes back. 

 

[Over The Hill Again]

That was a dumb Out, man. 

[Patzky]

That's pretty inexcusable!

[Patzky]

Has to be a record for the longest time spent on base then being put out without a pitch being thrown.

[gil4]

So this was that double-post thing

[Patzky]

Not a promising beginning.

Yeah don't throw that again. Tying tun at the plate.

[Western SD Fan]

I probably would be easy with Alvarez.  Don't need to give up anything to him.  But you have to get the next guys out.

This Outman is.. playable!

I bet you were hoping we wouldn't remember you said this, with the rain delay and all. 😎

Nah, he didn't look playable yesterday, either.  Seems like 2023.

[Patzky]

Let's get some runs here 

[ziggy]

Looks like some of the fans have left for a warmer place to sit.

[Patzky]

Bell is due 🤫 😁

[Western SD Fan]

We could use a long fly ball from Bell.  Leaving the park not necessary.

Copernicus Murray at your service. Hell even Luke came up big.

[lecroy24fan]

The rain delay warmed up the Twins bats. 

[Patzky]

There's no lower feeling than being the post rain delay mop up guy.

[mrtwinsfan]

No Morneau its not bad luck ,  its  BaseBall   and Bell made a couple mistakes on 1 play

[Twins_Fan_For_Life]

I don't think I've ever seen a play like that throw out at third base. They are conceding the Run and the bace Runner runs into the out backwards

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Hey look!

A lead...

How nice!

Yeah that was strange. Bell doesn’t change directions easily 😆

I don’t think that’s strictly true. Just a really strong rule of thumb
