    Time for the double steal here!

    Is Chevrolet Fountain a new car model or is it a thing in centerfield?

    Coaches who can't teach? Players who won't/can't/don't learn?

    I was typing instead of watching, so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounded like he forgot to field a single to right and turned it into three bases.

    Had I known I would do today, the theme would have been "October baseball, Twins style."

    Bundy for the Twins, Hutchinson for the cats.
  7. PDX Twin
    Can't get through the game without TD!

    More than ability, I respect that he gives 100% all the time. His 100% is not as high as some of the more talented Twins, but we get it every game, every inning, and every pitch.

    Have the Twins started stealing bases over the last two weeks because the games don't matter any more, or because they have finally brought up some players who are faster than tortugas?

    And if you also had a Jeffers RBI triple on the same bet, you can now afford to buy the Twins.
  11. PDX Twin
    Last as in "most"?
  12. PDX Twin
    Of course, it's the two guys hitting ~.100 who produce the first hits and a run! Must be opposite day.
  13. PDX Twin
    Sitting against the lefty is my guess, but with the Twins you can never assume health!
  14. PDX Twin
    You have a lute on your list? I thought you were more of a tuba guy.

    This is one of the places where Win Probability Added fails. Thielbar rather than Gordon got the demerits for the latter's grievous error that lost the game.

    Dick was talking about Louie, Louie as a song for Varland and commented that most would not remember the Kingsmen, who were the band that recorded it. I know the Kingsmen only because they were high-school students at Rex Putnam High School a few miles from my house. The Putnam athletic teams are named the Kingsmen. (Not sure what they do about the girls teams.) I don't know if the band was named after the school or if the school's teams are named after the band.

    Oh-oh. Bases loaded with less than 2 outs.

    I've always loved the panoramic view from the upper deck. I used to love sitting (mostly by myself) in the $3 seats in the third deck at Met Stadium!

    I posted another forum entry about this, but I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything about the Twins' staff and facilities in Ft. Myers today. I can't find anything in the local press or on the Twins' site.
  20. PDX Twin
    Has anyone heard any news about fatalities, injuries, or damage at the Twins' complex in Ft. Myers? I've been through the Ft. Myers News-Press this morning and, understandably, the focus is elsewhere and I couldn't find any news about Hammond Stadium or the complex. Please post if you see or hear anything.
  21. PDX Twin
    (Maybe more like Advil, given the state of the Twins' health.)
  22. PDX Twin
    This game is certainly NOT running on adrenaline!
  23. PDX Twin
    Halsey was a classic, along with Ray Scott in the booth.
  24. PDX Twin
    Hey, this is a family site!

    I’m pretty cynical about the Twins these days, so here my take on the Twins’ Halsey Hall-vintage broadcast intro song, updated to late 2022: We’re gonna lose, Twins. We’re gonna score (maybe). We’re gonna lose, Twins. Watch that baseball soar (into the catcher’s mitt). Crack out a foul ball; Shout a “Hip-Hooray.” (Yet, despite it all) Cheer for the Minnesota Twins today! So here’s what I’ve got for tonight: Rookie Josh Winder starts for the Twins, with his 4-5 record and 4.20 ERA. So much has happened since April that it is difficult to realize that he had never appeared in a major-league game until 2022. Missing much of the season through injury (he’s a Twin, after all) he has made just 9 starts and 13 overall appearances. For the team with bleached stockings from Chicago, Johnny Cueto makes the start. This has been the 36-year-old’s first season in the American League after 14 with the Reds and Giants. He brings in a 3.15 ERA and a 7-9 record in 22 starts (23 total games). MLB.com says that his nickname is “El Jucho,” for which Google Translate provides no clues. Can any Spanish-speakers on the site help with this? Or is it something unprintable in English? Lineups Cynicism aside, beating the White Sox is always fun, and last night showed that it is possible. Go, Twins!
