Soft. Thats what this Twins team is. No need for you to make excuses for them...

It’s not an excuse - we’ll see what the verdict ends up being, but I think it’s fair to call out MLB if they are not taking your safety seriously as a player. It is every employers job to keep you safe - if they aren’t that should be looked into.

+ 2 on offense and minus 3  on defense

Caratini helping to keep our score an inning alive!

[Aggies7]

You should no longer be allowed to grunt after giving up a home run to caratini

He's trying to atone. So I guess he's owes us one more?

Will take advantage of this rain delay to say I’ve been watching the 1987 World Series games on YouTube - very fun to go back to!

I was watching twins and Yankees from 2001. Not the knoblauch game. It’s funny to listen to dick and Bert talk about contraction and the new stadium and losing home grown guys to the big clubs

Playing baseball in the rain isnt a safety hazard...

If that was true, they would never call delays.

Letting an infield fly drop is bush league IMO

[Permanent Twins Fan]

The Twins have scored in every inning this game and have yet to score twice in an inning.

Can’t recall it working in the big leagues. Legion ball yes.

I agree.  I'm not sure anybody that has actually been fooled by the drop.  I'm not sure I want MLB to do anything about it.  I would like if coaches would just discourage its usage.  Other than being bush league, it seems to be too much risk for the reward.

[Aggies7]

Byron is literally a ball magnet 

[Aggies7]

Why would Witt apologize for hitting Byron? Lol 

[h2oface]

Another inconsequential, worthless batter challenge lost. Now out of challenges in a close game. Hit a homer anyway! Didn’t even need it.

He didn’t have to. He wanted to. Does that bother you?

First inning without a run 😔

You know it’s a quiet night at the ballpark when you can hear the ambulances go by

No, it’s just silly. Why did my question bother you?

I was hoping it was the police coming to arrest this defense (Clemens gets off on a technicality).

One out! 
Half way there!

No. The man is free to do what he wants. Showing respect to another player doesn’t bother me at all. 

[Permanent Twins Fan]

Gomez has been shoving for the Twins since we acquired him. At only 26, he might be a guy for the Twins in the years to come*. 

*Lockout pending

Cory was having a conversation with Molly earlier in the game about this.  Cory couldn't figure out how the math worked.  Apparently, Cory never listened to Blyleven at all.  This was all Blyleven would say in the 9th inning of games where the Twins needed to close the game out.

[Permanent Twins Fan]

Wallner goes deep for the third time tonight. 

[krink]

Gomez, Gomez he’s our man, if he can’t do it…!

F&#$.
