Zobrist was the switch hitter and then they had the 3 lefties. IDK know what I would have done, probably left Santana in to pitch to Zobrist and gone from there.
If Gibby was afraid it didn't show, he had one of his best outings of the year in a time they needed him most. Both him and Duffey stepped up big time in this series.
They certainly could be. The only one the Twins could have taken was Russell as well, he went 11th the year Buxton went #2. I want to see what people have to say about Buxton this time next year, I really do think he will be special player.
Who said anything about being angry? There's no anger here my friend. I said "sigh" because I said I see nothing wrong with brushing a guy back and the response I get is "so it's OK to break wrists?" They are not mutually exclusive things.
And I would argue it's showing more respect to the guy who is getting intentionally walked than it is showing disrespect to the guy coming up next. But that's just my two cents on the matter.
