August 2, 20179 yr For those watching: was that a legitimate hit or a play that likely would have been an error 20 years ago? Gameday says "singled to third baseman Sano".Sano made a helleva bare handed scoop and Mauer had a great dig at 1st, but he just beat it out. Now that double..... It was well hit, but Kepler did not play it well at all.
August 2, 20179 yr I may have to post this under the official scoring thread. Margot was awarded an RBI. I thought the rule is no RBI on a double play.

August 2, 20179 yr I told myself I wouldn't stay up to watch entire game. Now with the no hitter gone and the DP, I should probably go to bed. Can't stomach watching a loss to the padres
August 2, 20179 yr I may have to post this under the official scoring thread. Margot was awarded an RBI. I thought the rule is no RBI on a double play.Even on a non-force DP? I would think it's ruled a sacrifice fly with a trailing runner out trying to advance?
August 2, 20179 yr Granite playing over Rosario is questionable at best. You already have Castro, Buxton and Berrios hitting. You can't afford to bench one of your 3 best hitters.
August 2, 20179 yr The right side was so wide open and of course Granite puts it about the only place where he could get doubled up.

August 2, 20179 yr Author I may have to post this under the official scoring thread.Margot was awarded an RBI.I thought the rule is no RBI on a double play. It has to be a forced double play. The Runner on 2nd was not forced to advance to third.
August 2, 20179 yr I would like to see the difference in ball 2 and strike 3.... If anything ball 2 looked more like a strike.
August 2, 20179 yr Well at least Jose can pitch another inning #brightsideI'm not sure it's a given that he would be lifted. He will likely be around 80 pitches. Maybe less. Plus, he's a decent hitter.
August 2, 20179 yr I'm not sure it's a given that he would be lifted. He will likely be around 80 pitches. Maybe less. Plus, he's a decent hitter.Pitch count be damned, you can't have an automatic out lead off the 8th inning when you're down by a run (at least)
August 2, 20179 yr Pitch count be damned, you can't have an automatic out lead off the 8th inning when you're down by a run (at least)As I said, Berrios is far from an automatic out. He's a career .500 hitter.
August 2, 20179 yr Pitch count be damned, you can't have an automatic out lead off the 8th inning when you're down by a run (at least) Castro struck out to end the last inning so he can't lead off the 8th.
August 2, 20179 yr I really don't feel good about Granite. A contact hitter with no power and no arm. He is going to hit into a lot of DPs. Can he ever leg out one hit with his so called elite speed?
August 2, 20179 yr Plus, the way the pen has been lately, the Twins probably have a better chance to win if Berrios continues to pitch.
August 2, 20179 yr Reading the game thread drunk is a good thing. I'm going to bed now. Night.If you can still type legibly, you aren't that drunk
August 2, 20179 yr If you can still type legibly, you aren't that drunkAuto correct does the work I can't. And not falling down, no. More overly tipsy and now sleepy
August 2, 20179 yr Oh good. It's our DH who hasn't homered in 2 months. It's hard to score runs when your DH and 1B don't hit HRs.
