Game Thread: Tigers@Twins 9/25 7:10PM

Kinda worked. Now we're only down 1-0.

 

Yeah, but we did get a couple of hits, so I'll take partial credit.

[Oldgoat_MN]

Scherzer is impressive. He gets two strikes on a batter and there's none of this:

 

'Well, I'll throw a couple by the dugout & see if they swing' crap!

 

Goes right after them.

To be fair, with the Twins that's a pretty low risk to take.

I see our batting order showed up as usual for us.

The offense is on FIRE tonight. The no-hitter talk had barely started before they got an infield squib single.

[ashbury]

I just got back from dinner, and my first thought was "got anything more recent?"

 

Not, "where's the metamucil?"?

[ashbury]

Just tuning in, 1-0 Tigers, bottom of the 6th?....I thought Correia started, what the hell!

 

That leadoff triple is actually looking kinda big.

 

/ as though a one-run lead is surmountable

That was dinner.

Partial Credit. That was the nickname my teachers had for me, up until I dropped out of middle-school to get work as a deputy.

Umpire doesn't run him, for that?

Getting a feeling abut this inning......

 

[ashbury]

That was dinner.

 

Mrs Chief will have to give Mrs Ashbury the recipe.

[LaBombo]

And why should he?

 

I got beaned in a little league game once the one year I played. Someday I'm going to run into him again, then...

My favorite, and most vivid, 6th grade little league memory... Knocked down, not hit, by faceball from big mean kid while leading off in the first. Grounded the next pitch sharply back to the mound, which it took a very bad hop off of. Hit him where I would have guided the ball to with a radio control. Got a double out of it and he left the game not long after, feigning (or exaggerating) a limp.

 

So good luck with your delayed cathartic rematch. Dare him throw it over the plate and swing away!

What is the pitch limit for Correia in his last start of the season?

I didn't realize Gladys Ormphby was of the Grand Forks Ormphbys.

Your feelings are a off a tish.

Wow, you look a lot like a former Beatle. Don't recognize the old drummer.

I'm going to miss these in-depth and serious baseball discussions after Sunday.

I think you mixed up the picture.......is that your brother and law back left or the drummers manager?

[Squirrel]

And why should he?

 

I got beaned in a little league game once the one year I played. Someday I'm going to run into him again, then...

 

The only beaning I ever got was from a hit ball ... playing 2nd, inside thigh, hard-hit liner by a guy wearing a t-shirt with the word 'Killer' on the back. Most colorful bruise I ever got ... but my own fault.

 

 

 

edit: oh, and it was softball, not baseball

Next time you used your glove I'm sure.

[Oldgoat_MN]

Hey - gotta say -

 

Nice job Mr. Correia.

[twinsnorth49]

Ladies and Gentleman, Brian Duensing, next years opening day starter>

[big dog]

I would like to congratulate Mr. Correia for a better year than many (all?) of us expected. This year would have been far more dreadful without his 31 starts.

In-depth and serious? Why wait? I already miss them now!

[Riverbrian]

Ok... That's the last pitch for Correia in 2013.

 

Its possible that someone will try to make me eat these words... But here goes anyway.

 

185 innings and a 4.18... I am happy with those numbers and I tip my cap to Kevin.

[Winston Smith]

Moving Duensing into the rotation will be just like signing a big time free agent, per Terry Ryan.
