September 2, 201511 yr I should have clarified... Clearly, since Molitor is hitting Hunter 5th, he has confidence in him. Given this fact, I hate pinch running, with two outs in the 7th, for a guy hitting 5th.Now... I think Hunter should be hitting 9th (actually he should be on the bench) so I don't mind him not being in the game. So I don't mind it in that regard. I think your mistake is assuming since Hunter is hitting 5th that is somehow hitting better than he has for the past......2 months.
September 2, 201511 yr It's great to hear that Buxton has been working on his bunting this week. But I hope that news has no more effect on how the Twins use him than the news that he's been working on his dentistry.
September 2, 201511 yr I think your mistake is assuming since Hunter is hitting 5th that is somehow hitting better than he has for the past......2 months.Make no mistake... I have no confidence in him, but for some reason Molitor does
September 2, 201511 yr And they walk Dozier to gave the 23 mil dollar man. Not embarrassing at all.Maybe, it is now lol. Meaning for the Sox. Edited September 2, 201511 yr by Jerr
September 2, 201511 yr We need to get a base runner. I really want Sano to get up in the 8thFixing my own post
September 2, 201511 yr Not to complain, but how did Buxton not score on a deep single to right center? I expected him to cross the plate about two feet behind Suzuki.
September 2, 201511 yr Mauer actually came through in a late inning situation? NICE! I know there is a lot of criticism of Mauer - and understandably so - but he has actually been pretty good in some clutch situations this season. I know people were discussing they would rather have Plouffe than him, and there are reasons why that would make sense, but I still would rather see him in a clutch situation (but I am a Mauer apologist).

September 2, 201511 yr I guess it's hard to fault the kid for not sliding when he's in the dugout before the ball gets to the catcher...
