Anybody else see that foul for Kubes as a moral victory?

But... but... the game isn't over.

 

And it's a rubber game...

 

(Please forgive me if i'm in denial...)

You are not forgiven ... you are high-fived! ^5s

Why change your mind about Pinto PHing for Kubel just because it's tied? Is getting a lead not important?

Yeah buddy! Way to go Josh! There goes Hughes complete game. But thats okay.

Side note: Jason Kubel is a broken man.

"Uncle," heard muttered by Kubel as he walked back to the dugout.

It's really kind of sad. He's taken two 3rd strike fastballs right down the middle

Has Kubel reached his roster bonus yet? Can he be cut mid-game?

I'm actually jealous, jb. Living in LA, I really miss a good thunderstorm. God, I wish it would rain!

 

I LOVE thunderstorms ... but so far we had thunder and lightning but appear to be in a dry slot (we're near drought conditions) but finally ...

 

glorious rain. It would be lovely if it rained all night.

And by a chorus of Twins fans.

 

This has to be Jason's final game doesn't it?

Yes, but the Yankees offered to pay the roster bonus to keep him around.

Sneaky. That Brian Cashman knows his stuff

Random thought...is it coincidence the Yankee GM is named CASHman?

 

Discuss between innings.

This Yankee bullpen is terrific. Hats off to Willy for tying this one up!

Hicks is going deep here.

 

edit: deep into the count.

reason? Don't need no stinking reason.

Beautiful dreamer, la la la la

Didn't Kubel once hit a 2 run HR to win a game against the Yankees (although at Target Field)?

 

I'm sure Ronny G's memories are sharper than mine and that was the basis for his roster move.

I need somebody who is smarter at baseball then me to explain to me the purpose of Kubel walking up to the plate and doing exactly what everybody knew he was going to do while the man second on the team in dingers watches helplessly as Kubal k's helplessly. Does anybody really believe that it will be Hicks sent down when Fuld comes back and not Kubal released?

Kubel doesn't look good right now... However... Like I mentioned in the set up... Brian Dozier is now 0-17 and 2-35.

 

Slumps can can be deep and they can be broken out of.

 

I just don't like the idea of playing through them while you sit someone who could heat up.

Okay, I was satellite-less.

 

How did the Twins get the 2nd run?

I remember him hitting a game winning homer off Rivera maybe 4-5 years ago...maybe even a grand slam? But that was clearly a different Kubel

Just saw that Willy had a solo HR.

 

Nice to see him productive since his return.

That's the one. Couldn't remember how many runs.

Awesome! Hughes deserves a chance to win this game!

I heard Mr. Chief's mother say that once.

Hope Perkins is sharp today.

 

Nice way for Dozier to break a slump.

Oy, if ever there was an inflaming post ...

Attaway Dozierziesy.
