Buxton always misses the bunt.

 

Why even bother at this point? Just let him swing or take the pitch so he can get his timing down.

CUZ THEYLL NEVER EXPECT THE BUNT

I'm not excusing crappy pitch selection but there have been some other factors that have been beyond Gibson's control.

Things beyond Gibson's control....the ability to not get pitches crushed.

Molly likes playing with fire I see.

 

 

Exexuting with runners in scoring position? Where am I? What year is it?

 

Ah!  It's 1980!

Molly playing with house money and wants Gibby to qualify

 

I've actually been watching this whole time to be honest

 

You LIAR!!!

Unless the other team is coached by Paul Molitor.

Since I can't watch the game, just a quick question-  when Castro got called out on strikes, did he walk back the dugout kvetching over his shoulder at the ump- as per usual?

Who's this new reliever? He's looking pretty good.

Swinging at that 3-0 pitch should get one benched

Man, talk about hitters getting themselves out. Gibson clearly has zero command of the outside corner, so every Orioles hitter should look only middle in. Yet they're still swinging at Gibson's outside pitches. That's just brain damaged. 

A tear just welled up. That was a beautiful inning.

Nope

 

Ball was pretty much down the middle. 

 

 

 

I think he was in the dugout before the ball crossed the plate

Did Gibson just strike out the side? Did I read that right?

I'm having issues digesting what I just saw. Did others see Gibson go 1-2-3? Please tell me I'm not crazy.

Good deal. Molitor let Gibson gut it out. And Gibson responded. 

That was a very inning. If he could locate like that consistently, he'd be great.

Check it out. Gibson's "best inning of the year" happened mostly because he stopped throwing his fastball. He got almost all his whiffs on off-speed stuff. Coincidence?

Not this time. Everyone knew it was a strike. Even Castro.

BREMERGASM!

 

 

 

Premature.

Buxton up there wailing away

You are a Twins fan. (I think we've had this discussion before) Therefore....

Good deal. Molitor let Gibson gut it out. And Gibson responded.

I wonder what would happen if he'd allow others to do such things?

That 5th inning from Gibson... just might give our boys some life. 

A Gibson 1-2-3 inning, all with strikeouts and Buxton with a leadoff hit.

 

What alternate universe are we in?

BREMERGASM!

 

 

 

Premature.

He is the worst "home run decipherer" ever

 

Just back from class--  whew!  Looks like we may survive a Gibby start!

 

Now, who comes in, Duffey?  Rogers?  Those are about the only guys out there that don't make me mimic that Munch painting...

 

Please, for the love of God, don't put Gibby back on that mound, Molly...

Gee, I'm quoting myself.  

 

.....and Gibby gets a Snapper Mow-em-Down Inning.   Order of crow, table 5 please.

 

OK, but that's enough now, Molly.  Please don't do it again.

 

Sidebar-  he did look like a good reliever just then.  Maybe......

I like seeing Buxton take bases. I wouldn't mind him take 3rd either. 

Cmon' Mauer!

 

Bunt!
