LOL. Looks like Piirates manager was right about the batters ABS challenge. 

Umps hate the Pirates. So many wacky things have happened to them lately in the Jays and Cubs series.

Plouffe did criticize the poor route running of Larnach for allowing more runs to score.

He did and he was correct.

[Patzky]

Nice. Arcia does provide some competence out there.

That is a plus for the Twins.

What a roller coaster of a game 

It's definitely been interesting with the twins battling back ...

But the umpires with Lowe batting and challenging and then getting thrown out for foul language  ...

Interesting  ...

What did he do to earn it?

Of course It’s painful being a Twins fan this year, but can you imagine if you were a Tiger or a Royals fan this year. Twins are 5-6 games ahead of both of them. They were both supposed to be pretty good, and I think a rebound is not too likely for either team this year.

I think he swore at the crew chief at 3rd base. This crew messed up. Should have went to a review.

I think it was the crew chief, Jordan Baker at 1st, who tossed him.  Agree though that the umpire crew messed up and then doubled down by tossing Lowe over their error.  I hope that is something that is addressed in a future CBA negotiation.  If you toss someone over your own error, you get suspended for a game.

“It could be worse” is our rallying cry here.

Is Kris Atteberry doing the play by play for the TV broadcast today?

[h2oface]

That was a catchable little pop up for a defensive second sacker. 

[h2oface]

Speaking of smoke and mirrors….. Cody “Nuke” Funderburk. Sporting a 9 ERA in his AAA stint, proving he made adjustments. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Miss anything ?

[Peter]

Comeback means nothing if we lose 

[Patzky]

Ugh. Thanks Bailey, but l think you're finished 

[Church of Kreidler]

Caratini, appreciate the eagerness to catch, but please, chill.

[h2oface]

Falling apart again. Let the feeble pop up land, catcher interference, and the base hit. This is not feeling good.

Yep, can't be doing that. 

[Hubie29]

Shelty is thinking let's get Ober a 10 spot. Idiot.

[jkcarew]

[Patzky]

I don't feel this is the right move (Fundy)

[jaimedude]

Poor defense is biting the Twins hard today.

Caratini should be challenging some of these missed strikes. There was one while it was still 2-1. Another here.

did he get a 2 year deal ?   

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Funderburk!
