Hicks batting lead off walked and scored.

 

Pinto has thrown out a runner and made a nice play on a bunt.

 

Peterson has 3 RBIs. Pinto walked and scored on Brock's HR

 

Meyer gave up a run in the third. Ball off the glove of Diaz allowed run to score.45 pitches through 3 innings

 

Since we are talking puppies, this is the one we adopted a week and half ago.  You can keep her as a good luck charm, though she's getting fixed next month.

 

Rochester going up against Andrew Albers today.

 

Not for much longer at this pace

Isn't there a two-hour rule, kind of like with the professor in college? After two hours let's just go home; we'll make it up some other day?

Home run Hicks

This is way more fun than a Twins game

The Twins have plenty of guys that can hit lefties. No need for Hicks.

Two hour rule for professors?  I totally thought of something else when you said that :-)

That's just funny

OK... how did Rosario get doubled up on a foul ball pop up to 1B?

I'd love it if the Twins could avoid a series sweep and steal one today, but if a postponement means they avoid playing Herrmann today AND they get to start Hughes on Monday by pushing the whole rotation up a day... hey, that would be ok too.

2 hours? I thought it was 15 mins

Our luck they will push back Pelfrey and we get to see him on Monday

Nah, our luck and we'll hear on Monday that T.C. Bear got rabies and the Twins tell all the kids they had to put him down.

 

 

too dark?

If my roommate dies do the Twins make the playoffs?

Nope

Brock Peterson is having a great game, maybe he could be this year's Colabello.

OK... how did Rosario get doubled up on a foul ball pop up to 1B?

It wasn't a big pop up. He was stealing and it was a soft fly near 1B. It could have a hit and run but he had no chance.

Meyer has walked 5. Hit 101 on the gun. Buffalo can't hit him. They just wait out the walks. Major leaguers would put the ball in play in some of those at bats before the walk occurs.

If your roommate dies because he was killed by a rabid TC bear then I think you also get free play-off tickets.  You get to watch from the dug-out if it happens on TV and is somehow is tied into a bizarre kiss-cam tragedy.

The homer from Hicks is really nice. Really nice. Slugging Hicks is a viable Hicks for the Twins.

I'm just surprised he got a hit in the first two weeks of the season.

I seem to remember a fun with numbers thread in 2013 where at one point, the Twins had more rainouts than Hicks had hits.

At this rate, the Twins game will end around the time the Wild start up. 

Hick outscoring MLB roster...SMH

Have the Twins tried giving Alex Meyer glasses? That worked well for Rickey Vaughn in Major League.

Today's first pitch is scheduled for approximately 4:40 p.m. ET.
 

 

We might just have a game.

That would be continuous sports.  I'm sure nature will let up shortly.  I'm back and ready to pay attention, even if i should have done a few more errands...

 

 

Game is on the radio. I forgot I had Gameday audio on at work, and suddenly I heard a choir in the background and couldn't find the tab the sound was emanating from.

 

Anyone know- just because this game is starting 3hours 45minutes after the scheduled time, are people able to turn those tickets in for another game? That's more than a regular game's length to hang-out at a wet ballpark...

yay!   game on!
