By the time this is over he might be throwing an empty bottle of tequila in the direction of the bullpen.

I love when Sano doesn't strike out

Looked like a good job by Mr. Sano. Didn't try to do to much.

I understand we're limited with Byron out

 

Keats and Shelley will just have to hold down the fort until Byron is back. Yeats also looking good in AAA.

Riverbrian...thoughts?

 

Alright

 

Here we go again. 

 

Molly obviously wanted to sit Sano because he is striking out every single time he steps to the plate. 

 

Molly is trying to not stack up his left and right handed batters so the the Rays or any team can bring in a left hander and roll through 3 or 4 left handers in a row. 

 

So with 5 left handers in the lineup he is spacing them out in the

 

2. Mauer

4. Rosario

5. Morrison

7. Kepler

9. Castro

 

Molly then takes his right handed and switch hitting batters and plugs in the rest. 

 

Dozier always hits first so

 

1. Dozier

2. Mauer

4. Rosario

5. Morrison

7. Kepler

9. Castro

 

He plans on playing Grossman, Escobar and Adrianaza and he has them left to plug in at 3 6 and 8 spots. 

 

Molitor chooses Grossman over Escobar for the 3rd slot. 

 

 

 

Shucks no Grossman, good job Sano

Alright, now they have to get at least 2 runs and then have Addison Reed throw the 7th, 8th, and 9th.

This game is a long way from over. Like, at least an hour. Maybe more. I think the twins will win it in twelve innings

 

I'm already waving my empty bottle of Scotch.

Good job that at bat for Sano. And with that his season strikeout percentage drops to a very respecatble 48.3%

Either I've not had enough Scotch because this makes a lot of sense or this makes a lot of sense because I've had too much Scotch.

It's probably rum, but use your imagination

 

Why is the rum gone?!

Win-win?

 

Why is the rum gone?!

Its always gone

Luckily we can't be mad at Eddie for grounding out because we're still too stunned by the Magellan-esque voyage of his throw to the infield.

 

brutal

Well, I'm gonna go for a run
 

if the Twins come back and win this one, you can thank me

if the Twins come back but blow it like Friday night, you can thank me

 

Why is the rum gone?!

well it sure as **** ain't doin' anyone any good IN the bottle.

 

yes.

Pfft. From what I gather, you wish you were only "old."*

 

*I'm so gonna die for that remark. Totally worth it, though.

Definitely sailed on him

Define "sailed." Sailed over the horizon? Into the setting sun?

we gonna hold you responsible if they just meekly go down 6-4, too.

And this was a good game to rest Sano....why?  Doesn't matter what Sano is doing (as long as he's playing a serviceable 3B, which he has been...because you're replacing him in the lineup with Adrianza...in a game you know you're going to have to score a bunch...and he had shown signs of making decent contact the previous game...and he's the number one guy you need to get going...and...

 

Pfft. From what I gather, you wish you were only "old."*

 

*I'm so gonna die for that remark. Totally worth it, though.

For the record, I don't consider myself old. Old is always 15 yrs older than me.

No thanks, it gives me the wind something terrible.
