How about the game tying double by the first batter he faced?

Would not have tied if defense defended.

Eventually you just gotta go for it. At least when Buck doesn't need to DH anymore. Don't want Wallner anywhere near the outfield in a close game. But he can DH..

Heading into this game he was still striking out around 30% of the time. We know he can hit monster home runs off AAA pitchers, but I think that the Twins want to see an decrease in strikeouts and a lot more singles and doubles before he gets called up.

I think that’s one of those downsides of having a young player - while they should have been calling, Keaschall also should have known that was the short stops…

There is no excuse for someone who has played baseball for several years, to not be able to call a pop fly and also for the other player to listen and to obey the player who has precedent on that pop fly. I don't know whose fault that play was, but it was a Little League mistake. Pitiful. 

[USAFChief]

Kind of hard to know who is at fault on the popup without knowing who called it. But if the SS did, or they both did, that's his.

In the pie chart of blame for that pop up. I give Kreidler 80% and Keaschall 20%

Only the Twins have pie charts of blame.

I hope you are not referring to Kreidler as young and you meant Keaschall.  Kreidler is not young any more.  This is the type of play that happens when you don't have a set lineup.  They need to stop playing musical chairs and go with an infield configuration for the rest of the year and see how it plays out.

Not comfortable with each other, which is why the Correa Buxton collision a year ago was so sad.

Does anyone know how long the game might be delayed for?

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!

[David HK]

Well, with a crowd like that, he could have been heard loudly and clearly on the broadcast! 😂

Someone should start a list of the current roster that could beDFA’d and then traded for “cash considerations”…. and another list of who would not get “cash considerations “.

It's not rocket science. Call loudly and frequently for the ball. Give way to the player who has precedent if both call for the ball. That was not a pop up that neither player felt he could get and thus remained silent.

In the metro, and it seems like the storm has passed. Perhaps we will see the conclusion?

I still have yet to read the story, but this would be an interesting development and probably says something about where the progress of Ober will be.  Ober is making a claim that the baseballs are not being rubbed down enough, especially during a rainy game, such as his start in Boston.  Ober has filed a formal complaint with MLB.

What a mental midget. If thats the mentality of players on the team no wonder we are a joke

I don’t think that’s fair - Gray who was pitching for the Red Sox agreed. Of all the games that should have been called for weather, that game is #1.

Play starting again at 9:30
