should be clearing up soon, I give it about another 30 minutes or so

Until then ... that Sano is just so athletic ...

Looks like the rain may start about 30 min in or so. Not too heavy, but they may stop it.

How do they intend to stop the rain? If I can find out, I may get my driveway in tomorrow after all!

Guys, is that guy gone? Are we all clear to cheer on peoples deaths now?

What is this meme?

 

Well I lost the over/under on how many innings it would be until we saw our first fan meltdown.

Strangest fan meltdown I've witnessed on TD... About something so meaningless too. To steal the popular phrase from Mike Sixel, Mind.Boggling.

It means ... DiscGolfer drinks!

Yeah, I'm here for the second relay delay   ,  but its opening day     .....GO TWINS!!!

Oh man! The Mods deleted the comment that this was replying to. Should have let it live throughout history!

Okay, folks ... let's move along now ... gawker slowdowns don't help traffic ...

Reminds me of a certain meltdown over at BYTO, over someone talking about a Beatles cover band in a thread talking about a Beatles inspired play. That was truly the best thing ever.

Normally I would charge a fee for using that, but I think given the circumstances, you get it for free this time.

 

I generally don't like how the strikeout is being dismissed for batters but rightfully so what most teams want from their pitching staffs.

At times it's almost seemed as if Twins have treated batter walks like little league walks, a sort of inadvertent, unavoidable delay in the contest that you simply have to put up with when a pitcher can't find the plate.  Hands were wrung off at the wrists over Aaron Hicks' excessive passivity at the plate, while Twins staff and media still celebrate Dan Gladden's storied career as a Twins leadoff man who would run into the stands to swing at an outside pitch.

 

Meanwhile, pitcher walks are still regarded as a kind of inappropriate baseball conduct that ought to require the offending pitcher to register with the league as a criminal strike zone offender.

Man waiting on rain delays sucks.......

Only if they are on your celebrity death list.

I think I missed the real entertainment.

 

Thanks for pausing the game for me.

Twins drinking game:  drink 1 every time someone mentions how good of an athlete Sano is in reference to him playing right

 

 Strikeouts to me are like alcohol or deserts everything in moderation.

That was my philosophy too, until my first taste of the Gobi...

Nope, you didn't miss a thing.

A Beatles inspired play? Let me think. Pschedelic curveball? John Paul to George double play?

you only missed a few strike outs

Approx. restart time is 5:30 CT per Mike Berardino's Twitter account. Thinks both Santana and Tillman will be done for the day.

I think it was Jean-Paul Sartre who said that.

What a waste of pitchers.

We're just getting started.  If FSN burns through its rain delay library, Dick's taking on Bert in what's sure to be a rousing game of PS4 MLB The Show.

Nice, this is all playing right into our strength: Elite Bullpen depth.

I would watch that.

So who is our long reliever ?

 

Or do we use another starter?

Right! Apparently Pressly is heading to the bullpen to warm up.

They will probably use today to stretch out Tonkin.

Sort of lost interest in him after he left The Carpenters.

 

Hangin' around ^{hanging around}

 

Nothin' to do but frown.

 

Rain delays and Mondays always get me down.
