Did you guys see the bluff catch by 2B just then? Eddie looked startled and scared!

Off to class for a while, came back to see that pathetic attempt at base-balling.  W.  T.  F.   How in the bloody h can you mess up a play like that so badly?  How can you get to the major leagues and not be able to get a bloody bunt down, if you are a guy like Santana.  There is just no excuse.  My 50-something year old butt could get a dang bunt down.

There's no excuse to try and bunt at that time anyway.  Give some grief to Molitor for calling for it in the first place.

 

And putting down a good bunt at that level is a lot harder than people think.

Absolutely... You'd hang with Chief and hide under a seat until everybody goes home and they lock the doors. 

 

and

Sano knows?

Rosario would have taken 3B on that if his head was in the game.

Uff Da

 

I Almost forgot

 

Park with a homer now every 11.4 AB's. 

Park bang again?

Mauer's OBP up to .464. :-) Has gotten on base at least once in every game he's played.

What was the complaint before? Oh, that no one is ever on base when Park hits a home run. Well ...

Time for a park bangarang

Yeah, I wouldn't want to pitch to Miguel there, either.

I think it's funny that dugouts have actual... you know... phones attached to the wall. 

 

They could just send a text if they wanted. 

only need a single.

The fastball down the chute made my pants move

Shoot, I'll take a Park walk

only need a single.

Have you seen the twins pen.... we need all of them

Dozier, Mauer, Sano, Park, Arcia = a Miniature Murderers Row.

 

(I would bat Dozier after them, though - someone with a better OBP should bat second.)

I really find it odd how seldom baserunners in MLB do the 3-hops towards the next base that we teach in little league ball. The only guy I saw do that on the Twins was Aaron Hicks. If a pitch dribbles away just a little bit, you've got a good jump towards the next base. These MLB teams are so conservative. The game is supposed to be more fun than guys standing around on base.

Park has now hit a home run every 11.6 AB's

 

 

Sigh

guaranteed every player on the Royals takes 3rd on that.

 

And I believe Mauer would have too. He does it a lot. Smart baserunner.

Oh shucks.

Sometimes it's just nice to hear a voice.

Well, Park doesn't exactly know what to do yet with guys all over those bases like that.  He was probably distracted trying to add up the possible RBI.  And McAllister did a good job of pitching on him, dang it.

Did Berrios look like he may be good once he settles in?

Is it still Wednesday?    In Central Time,    at least?

Man that Scott Erickson no hitter was almost blundered away by the lf and ss. Thankfully that didn't happen today or Rosario would have bicycle kicked it over the wall.

Even the funny way he runs, he would do it.

Dusty Baker pro tip:    Cutting down on the walks will cause more plate appearances to result in AB's!
