Morneau:look for Banda to attack that strike zone right away"

First pitch in the dirt.....

[Patzky]

Banda usually opens the floodgates. Maybe ours too..?

[Patzky]

Begrudgingly, the infield defense has been uncharacteristically solid so far this evening.

In my search hunting for the good per Shelty, the sunset is pretty nice after a day of mostly cloudy skies. Turn that drone camera around so they show the skyline when you're sitting at the stadium.

Matthews is getting Ryan run support. 

For the most part, he pitched well enough to get a win.  Unfortunately, it's more likely he'll end up with an undeserved loss, due mostly to the grossly incompetent offense we have.

Sigh!

Clemens has caught two scorched liners tonight. Last one was 114 off the bat.

Remember when the year before Denny Hocking made the big league team he was hit in the throat in spring training? TK was not impressed.

Just heard that Trevor Plouffe will be in the TV booth for at least the Red Sox series. 

Good news indeed!

[Patzky]

Someone said Alexander had a 11 ERA. I just checked and it's right around 7. Quit with the fake news y'all.. this guy is good.

Okert, no fair! He has all our secrets!

[h2oface]

Banda must have a fever lately, too. 

[Patzky]

Remember those good old days where we would load the bases and not score? Remember that? Pepperidge farms remembers

[IndyTwinsFan]

We could really use Lewis' bat in the lineup. LOL

Just kidding.

Ball four, Brooks...

He thinks he's Willi Castro.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Geez...is this the same Okert?

[Patzky]

Arcia will fit right in.

[Linus]

How do you say our offense sucks…..

[RpR]

Arcia , on my.

[Twindy]

Pretty sure Okert sucked for us and I doubt if he ever struck the sides out while pitching for the twins

Look at the lineup he's facing.  Just a bit short of Murderers Row.

You just did!  All caps would be the only way to improve the observation.

The only thing they are murdering is a bag of Krispy Kreme's.

Kriedler Kremes.. we should try it

He did. Entering tonight he's had 90 appearances for the Stros after we dumped him with a 3.19 ERA. Something still stinks in this organization even with all of the recent turnover.

[RpR]

The Twins have 4 hits, who got the... oh wait, Bell has 2 but they say his DFA commanded by so many on TD is soon to be processed.

[The Great Hambino]

Quite the display of offense from both teams tonight

First two batters: 2 runs

Next 53 batters: 0 runs
