Game 6 - Twins vs Angels - 04/12/12

[Ultima Ratio]

Anyone else think the grass is a little long (both OF and IF). It's really slowing the roll of the ball. Does this play to our advantage?

[asmus_ndsu]

Mourneau!!!!!!!!! He's been wanting that one allll week!!

[striker_86]

There it is!

[Gernzy]

Morneau! This game is nuts!

[Seth Stohs]

Big Gulp!! Atta boy Justin Morneau!!

[TwinVike61]

Now that's the M&M boys of old!

[asmus_ndsu]

I think we've hit more home runs in target field this week then all last year.... And it hasn't even warmed up yet

[striker_86]

Mauer single, followed by a Morneau Homer. Thats the way it should be in a 1 run game.

[woolhouse]

Three homeruns for the Twins today... that hasn't happened in awhile. I hope it happens more.

[Mauerpower]

morneau homers and drives in mauer. the universe is starting to get back in alignment

only if we have speed in our of

[MileHighTwinsFan]

How great is it to see it work like it is suppose to - Mauer sets the table and Morneau clears it. Meanwhile the Hammer is bringing back memories of Mr. Thome. Fun stuff.

[striker_86]

We are just beating the crap out of this pitcher now!

[asmus_ndsu]

19 hits? What?

[TwinVike61]

and a much needed insurance run...

[asmus_ndsu]

Ausie ausie ausie!!!!! And the hits keep coming that's 20!

[striker_86]

Morneau leaving the bases loaded in the 6th seems like ages ago now.

[James]

Poor Rich Thompson... Mike Scioscia must really not like you to let you be punished like this.

Their just out of options

Beautiful afternoon for baseball in MN!

[Ultima Ratio]

Jeff Gray in line for the win again, with only two pitches thrown this game. This could be 2 wins for him in 2 days on three total pitches. The "wins" statistic is surely the dumbest stat in baseball.

[nokomismod]

Anyone know if Capps is still walking in with "The Final Countdown"?

[Ultima Ratio]

only if we have speed in our of

I was thinking that we'd want to have short grass resembling the ground ball and infield hit success of the metronome... also helps with bunting... but in the outfield, we are prettying slow and sluggish get to balls.

[striker_86]

cmon Capps, dont make this one a heart attack.

[Ultima Ratio]

sorry, long grass int he IF helps with bunting.

[TwinVike61]

anyone else think it's time for our new closer (Perkins)?

[striker_86]

Put in Perkins now. This is going south in a hurry!

[asmus_ndsu]

anyone else think it's time for our new closer (Perkins)?

I gave up saying that last year

[deanlambrecht]

If Capps blows this one, we should send him and Liriano out of town on a rail immediately after the game. Wow.

[woolhouse]

Hunter's single should have been a double play. A crappy play/circumstance like that- hitting the second base bag- isn't Capps' fault. Pujols and Trumbo's hits... yeah, that's on Capps.
