Niiiiiiiiice.

[Aggies7]

Mejia looking pretty good, to be honest

[John Kelsey]

Nicely done Adalberto, getting 5 out of him would be nice. 

[Don Walcott]

Well done, Beto!!

Stuff looks good, hitting his spots for the most part too. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Tigers are making Mejia’s slider look really good tonight.

As they are wont to do

The Indians beat the Angels today!

I keep thinking the Indians have peaked at the wrong time, but this is just one continual peak

I thought it was Castro's framing.

[Jham]

Mejia really reminds me of a young post TJ Liriano.  Hopefully he learns to pitch like Frankie did!

[Aggies7]

Zimmerman has screeched the game flow to a halt

[TwinsCD]

Got some meds to deal with the shakes in these situations.  Hopefully the bats can come through.

[ThejacKmp]

 

You aim to low.  World Series victory in 2017...

 

We don't like him that much.

[Aggies7]

Over eager Eddie gets a good one to be over eager on

He’s missing ~5mph on his slider.

 

Liriano’s slider was historically good. IIRC, he could get it up to 92mph and the bottom fell out. It was a good fastball that suddenly lost a violent battle with gravity.

[Ultima Ratio]

How slow has Mauer gotten? Should have easily scored from second on that Rosario base hit.

How does Mauer not score on Rosario's hit?

I was convinced 06 was the year, then he got hurt

AFTER his TJ surgery?

I saw him hand gene glynn some rocks when he reached third

Cost us a run.

No, before.

[mikecgrimes]

FS1 please don't show any more of the game until I see some guy in a Travis Fryman jersey.  I don't care at all that someone has a Brandon Inge jersey.

Like the Andy Dufrane.

Fryman for you, Robert Fick for me

[bighat]

 

Cost us a run.

 

Escobar cost us a run by fouling out with the bases loaded and 1 out. 

 

Absosmurfly amazing how many of those gimme runs this team refuses to take. They don't have the ability to make "good outs".

[mikecgrimes]

 

Cost us a run.

It was a line drive if he hesitated which he appeared to do he didn't have a better chance then one of the next two batters at least drawing a walk or sac fly from the next batter.  With bases loaded the cost of making an out on the bases is significantly higher.

[Aggies7]

They're sending thoughts and prayers to the young girl hit by the foul ball yesterday. Finally, now she can recover

[Aggies7]

That slider tho
