Orioles (Baz) vs Twins (Matthews): 08/12/26, 12:40 PM

Lol... Somehow I knew Culpepper wouldn't be in the line-up today. Because it's just the most Twins thing ever. I've never understood their desperate desire to get at-bats for AAAA guys who won't be on next year's roster. Truly, what would the point be? I've never understood & never will. But there must be a reason.

Only 0-1. I'm so acclimated to 0-2 this feels like a good omen. Of course if we don't score today it's over.

Dam, I never did like Beavers...

[Patzky]

🔔 nice!

Larnach scoring from 2nd on a single isn't a sure bet.

[Patzky]

Keep it up guys.

[Whammy]

With the run given up in the 1st inning today, Twins starters have allowed a 1st inning run in 9 of their last 12 games.

Maybe not with a Big Hit, but still glad to have Larnach in the leadoff after that!

Zebby loses today time to put him in bullpen or back to St. Paul 

BEDTIME

Chatty Cathy, aka Justin Morneau, was correct, Lewis's fly ball would have been a HR in 25/30 MLB parks according to Baseball Savant.

Where would the Twins be without Josh Bell?

Just not a good one.

At least tied it up again. Seems like leaving runners on early is our new team motto.

Probably within 3 or 4 games of .500

Kinda partial to otters, myself.

Caratini with another correct challenge! It is very nice to have 2 of the top 20 catchers for challenges on this team.

Mrs Chief and I have become big fans of audio books. We like to sit after dinner and listen to a good thriller. 

We were just about done with a really good murder mystery when I accidentally deleted the book from my phone. 

Boy, Mrs Chief was really mad at me. I'm sure I'll never hear the end of it.

That's what she said.

RISP failure is the only designated failure in 2026. All others will be addressed in the order they are received.

Honestly how many games under .500 would we be without Bell.  He has had a nice season when he has been on, but didn't heat up until June.  July was basically league averages with no HR's after July 4th.  Now he is heating up again and still has a WAR of .8,   We have no idea what the alternative would have been, but to say he's been a savior to the season is overstating it a little bit.
