They walk Dozier with two outs, but not Grossman with 1. Curious decision.

No offense, Joe, but I hope you don't get the chance to go for the cycle.

 

Okay, Joe, you might as well hit for the cycle.

 

Brutal

Don't understand how both Vargas and Castro are looking for walks when all it takes is some sort of contact to get a potential win.  At least put the damn ball in play.

 

Can Jack Morris be signed out of the booth for a couple of innings?

This not executing with the bases loaded is getting old.

The two guys they started over Sano: Vargas and Escobar went 0-12

 

Fire molitor!

Who comes after Santiago if this goes more innings?

I would have much rather lost the game there then started trotting out starting pitchers.  Should have played for the win period.  Although we do now have a huge advantage.

It became old weeks ago

I wonder if the tennis courts are still open...

Oi

So much for that advantage?  Why bunt why why why why?

Santiago with another unfortunate pitch like Friday night.

Rats.

Or Gladden, as he did pitch once....

No excuse Castro. You know the zone rn

unbelievable poor awareness by Castro

Santiago is doing this for his teammates

What an awful loss.

Given the way this team hits, the bunt was the right play to get both guys in scoring position.  If anyone could freakin execute with 1 out and a runner on 3rd, we're not here right now.  Hell, if Grossman's hit is a 30-hopper instead of a sharp single, we're not here right now either.

to play for the tie, of course!

Dang, nice BP there, Santiago. Is the home run derby coming up? 

Never give up.

Good enough for me. Later yall

Oh...well..... BUT hope springs eternally......  best I got now......

If this game is not over this next inning. The Twins need to throw it. This is what I hate about baseball - extra innings, and it ****s everything up moving forward.

Worst loss of the year if the score holds.

Fire Molitor!!!!!!!!!!

Breath. Breath.

 

I had no expectations for this team going into the season. I'm getting to wound up.

 

This team has done far better than I dreamed they would, so, I need to take a deep breath.

 

(still irritating to see the Twins throw away a winnable game, but, hey, it's baseball)

I see what you are saying, but no. Bunting is free outs for the other team.
