Santana clearly hasn't been sharp for quite awhile. Granite just doesn't seem to be able to hit up here. He's been hitting balls down in the zone for grounders to 2nd. I'd like to see him square up on the ball down the middle he seems to take.
I sell antiques in a shop in Stillwater. Jessica Lange visited often and Sam Shepard also. Nice people. But it only takes a few to ruin things. They just wouldn't leave Jessica alone. Someone flattened all her tires one time, and folks would go up to their door. Didn't take long and they moved.
With Gibsons first pitch of the game being ball one, I figured this would be a long night. It has been, in a good way. Gotta give Gibson some credit for hanging in there. And excellent relief by Duffey. Thank goodness for Lauren Dusky in between.
This is pretty Cool! Tied for first place somehow. I just feel the Twins have a good chance of winning every day. They pulled it out last night, a game they would have blown in the past. I'm feeing good!
Polanco's arm is much better than it was at the start of spring training. Bert made the comment 2 games ago Sano was pulling everything in spring training. I don't know what Bert saw, but he didn't see much. Sano worked all spring on going the other way and up the middle. It's paying off for him. He's looking at pitches differently and not swinging at some he did last year. It's been a nice start for the entire team.
