Big inning coming up. Gotta get thru this one without much damage.
-
..oh, don't the days seem lank and long; when all goes right and nothing goes wrong; And isn't your life extremely flat; with nothing whatever to grumble at! King Gama (Princess Ida) (I produced some G&S operettas while a student at McGill University...great fun)
-
Hope Pablo can go deep. We remember what happened when Verlander was pulled! He's in control right now. The trade? It was discussed at length during the telecast. Yeah--I'm happy. Both teams benefited but right now I have to say this has worked out very well for the Twins.
-
got him. big out, Get Bregman and its 5 innings of zero! And he's gone!!!
-
a little nod to Gilbert&Sullivan there...were you aware?
-
was hoping for more damage with sacs juiced...Farmer had a 3-1 count but ended up striking out. But CC playing like a person possessed expands the lead to 5-0. So far so good.
-
Interesting comment during the game. When a guy comes in as a pinch hitter, he can't take that first pitch down the middle. He has to swing. Its giving the pitcher a free strike and a huge advantage to a 'cold' hitter. Little things...turn into big things. For Twins to win, they have to score with RISP and they can't be striking out half the time. (of course, to be fair, those 2 DP's early in the game sure didn't help the cause!!)
-
2 k's..13 in total. Bah, an afternoon of lousy baseball. Both Texas teams win and I can't stand it. Twins showed more intensity than the sleepy Orioles, but the 13 k's just must go away if Twins have a shot at getting another win this post season.
-
I was wrong...but the result wasn;t good!
-
julien will either k or walk
-
If they don't come back I'd like each hitter to hit the ball and not wave at strike 3...or take close ones because they should know the umps aren't going to give them the close ones.
-
11 k's today...and a handful with RISP. Thats just not going to get it done.
-
I swear those strikeouts are sucking the life out of me. And sadly they are so predictable. When they need contact, it just isn't there.
-
when you make a huge 4 run comeback, you need a shutdown inning, Unfortunately they didn't get one. Another mountain to climb
-
thats exactly what we didn't want to have happen. bummer.
-
This reminded me of the O's win over Toronto when they took Berrios out after pitching so well. Soon as he came out, O's got the only 2 runs they needed. Coming back from 5 down a lot harder and its a lot later, but they have a shot. Hope they don't stop one run short, One more run.....
-
and now Lewis. Getting verlander out of there was what the doctor ordered. Let's not lose this one now.
-
Theres the hit we were looking for. We have a game
-
..and the strikeouts rear their ugly heads. Runners haven't budged. Sigh
-
Castro with a huge AB here
-
gotta take advantage of this. Score some runs.
-
OK--lets get some hits and show some life.
-
lousy call on CC. But, the line between optimism and realism is not blurred in this game. Twins hitters don't look very good and Verlander is showing us why only Andy Pettitte has more post season wins. Not a good formula for the good guys today. Last hope is maybe Twins can get to their bullpen. 5 runs is a lot though.
-
old story..if you don't get to a HOF starter early in the game, you'll never get to him...as we're seeing now.
-
Maeda is not sharp today. Think its time to sit him down. This game has gotten away from the Twins.
