  1. I am less likely to patronize Pizza Ranch now than I was before the season started.
  2. This ump has been unfairly squeezing pitchers tonight.
  3. OK boys, keep the line moving. Let's see another 8-spot here.
  4. I think Hawkins generally does a good job in the booth, but how is it that someone who has spent over 25 years of his life associated with baseball can't pronounce Hispanic names properly? Gladden, who has been around for close to 35 years, is even worse. To me, anyone who is serious about any kind of career in baseball should try to have a working command of Spanish, and that's especially true for people who talk about it for a living.
  5. WTF!!! Guess we know why the Rangers have the record they do.
  6. Good move (or lack thereof) by Cave to wear that pitch.
  7. Twins Stephen Gonsalves (L) 1. Joe Mauer (L) 1B 2. Jorge Polanco (S) SS 3. Robbie Grossman (S) LF 4. Miguel Sano ® 3B 5. Max Kepler (L) RF 6. Mitch Garver ® C 7. Jake Cave (L) CF 8. Tyler Austin ® DH 9. Ehire Adrianza (S) 2B Rangers Drew Hutchison ® 1. Shin-Soo Choo (L) LF 2. Rougned Odor (L) 2B 3. Elvis Andrus ® SS 4. Nomar Mazara (L) RF 5. Adrian Beltre ® DH 6. Jurickson Profar (S) 3B 7. Joey Gallo (L) 1B 8. Robinson Chirinos ® C 9. Carlos Tocci ® CF
  8. The fielder has to control the ball, but it's the umpire's discretion whether the ball is controlled.
  9. Dude is only 23 years old. Waaaay too early to be writing him off.
  10. It's a fine line. The last run he gave up was not due to bad pitching but if he stays in the game and gives up 3-4 more hits it would be counterproductive to his confidence.
  11. It's not a joke. There is a chain of stores named Paddy O'Furniture, and it is based in AZ.
  12. This is an example, one that is admittedly a bit contrived, of how baseball is different from the other three major sports. There are so many different things that can happen during the course of a baseball game that, if you pay attention, you can see something you've never seen before even if you have been to thousands of games.
  13. It is completely unfair to have the same teams opening at home every year. Opening at home is a definite advantage in allowing everyone--staff and players alike--to get everything set up at home without having to deal with a road trip first.
  14. Looks like the '70's were not kind to them.
  15. So maybe it's a good thing Wilson got injured, eh?
  16. Eeek, Wilson is limping. Do we want to see Astudillo catching major league games?
  17. There never has been and never will be a bad RHH album.
  18. My assumption about the start time change is that it was done to encourage more families to attend on school nights. But I think I'd be fine with a 6:40 start through the whole season.
  19. http://www.startribune.com/brrrrrr-twins-will-open-2019-season-at-target-field-on-march-28/491459151/ Two items of note: 1.) Games on March 28th, including at Target Field, are the earliest regular season MLB games ever played in North America. 2.) Weekday night home games in April, May, and September will start at 6:40 PM CDT.
  20. The radar shows that the weather pattern is weird. The rain is moving from northeast to southwest.
  21. Phil Cavarretta appears to be the key. He was good enough to play before and after WWII but was excused from military service during the war, apparently because of a hearing problem. Not many players of that era who were good enough to have long careers stayed out of the military.
  22. Very cool responses!
