  1. Correct, but he loved him some ground ball outs.
  2. I'm giving it a Like at least for the tearjerker gif, even if there's a height joke in there somewhere...
  3. Someone eventually had to step into those big Joe Mauer shoes...
  4. 'Who cried when they took Byron Buxton out behind the bullpen?
  5. Yup, and he's not too happy about it...
  6. There's saving the bullpen, and then there's leaving the shrink wrap on the bullpen so you can return it without paying the re-stocking fee.
  7. Gallo with the Adam Dunn TTO finish to his swing... Normally I'd like to see a batter at least take a step or two toward first after contact, but I guess when you hear the ball break the sound barrier you can afford to stand and watch.
  8. And Rocco gets the assist on the last 2 runs.
  9. Timing was made worse by Rocco letting the bullpen guys all keep playing Fortnite instead of having someone warmed up.
  10. Sonny really making the most of the "Both Starters Go 9 or Your Money Cheerfully Refunded' promotion at T-Mobile tonight.
  11. Kiriloff to himself on 1st: <'Oh well, it'll look like a liner in the box score'> Bremer: "27NYY, b******s!!!"
  12. Rare photo of Squirrel consoling USAFChief after the Twins suffer yet another playoff series sweep vs the Yankees...
  13. At the very least, the hop definitely failed to text Julien a reminder 24 hours in advance of their appointment.
  14. He looks determined not to waste the series' worth of run support the Twins have put up for him so far.
  15. Yup. Fangraphs' Def for Edouard is -4.4, on a scale where -5.0 is giving your fellow defenders wedgies as they attempt to make a play. That said, leaving his .285/.359/.518 bat out of the lineup is the sort of thing that helps make a manager expendable.
  16. It was fun to watch the 1b ump's matter-of-fact facial expression as he explained to the rest of the crew how he made that foul ball call despite his junk's life flashing before his eyes.
  17. Watching the game with the FS1 announcers for a change, with their occasional objectivity and empiricism, reminded me that Dick Bremer's voice is like a subconscious Manchurian Candidate trigger for my brain to not expect much from the Twins.
  18. Joey Gallo, lumberjackin'... And a 3 run homer is really just about the ideal payback for Kluber hitting everybody but the Durham Bulls mascot. Yeah, it was probably mostly his control being off but there wasn't a lot of remorse on that face.
  19. The doubt is the sriracha that gives the win its fiery, eye-watering kick.
  20. I'd rather have seen Vazquez take the most obvious and hittable called 3rd strike in MLB history than strike out swinging at ball 4 after Press took the 3 second violation or whatever to bring it to a full count.
  21. He should be fine; staff told him to keep the fastball under 103.
  22. Duran's fastball is named Rio, and it dances on the sand...
