Batters routinely ask the umpires when they swing and miss if the ball was a strike; i haven't seen anyone do that in this game.

 

 

 

Good block by Garver there.

Atta boy!

Huge K right there. Get Bregman now, and pray the bullpen can hold on. 

 

Who ever said Garver couldn't frame pitches better than Castro?

With Angel Hernendez behind the plate, Castro would be getting calls on pitches behind the batter's back tonight.

Harper up, eh?

Get Bregman now, and get about 5 more runs so the bullpen has a chance of holding on.

Well that was less than ideal.

And there goes the lead.

 

Weird out there at 2b.

Yeouch! That stings. Gotta get those bats going

Nevermind.

 

Step 1 was key, and he couldn't get it done,

Good throw Eddie.

 

Lineup has to wake up now, with only one or two more innings before the scary backend of the Houston pen gets in. 

I have never in my life seen a pitcher look so uncomfortable on the mound. And I have a 10yo daughter in kid-pitch softball.

Since that Rosario HR, Miley has been lights out. Yikes!

Rosario's been busy out there in left field. Astros are running him ragged out there.

I don't get running Pineda out there to face 4-5-6 after the inning he just had. Forcing things too much against a lineup this good.

Twins have always had trouble with soft-tossing junk-balling journeyman lefties.

Is it just me or do the Twins managers year in and year out miss the simplest coaching maneuvers. Why would you ever throw a pitch to Bregman when there is 2 outs and 1st base open and the count is 3-0. WALK HIM!Basic baseball.

Who we got coming up here? Cron, Gonzalez, Schoop?

Great play by Harper!! 

 

I like him in the 5th or 6th inning role. He is a solid middle reliever. 

There's no whine in Ryne

Time for Marwin to do something. Anything.

Looking like LoMo 2.0

Gonzalez may not hit for much, but at least he's slow.

I think what pisses me off most about Marwin is that he doesn't hustle. Dude is hitting less than .190 and starts trotting halfway to second. What a joke.

 

 

Hell yeah, Kep!!!!

Ve are taking over

KEPPPPPPPP!!!!

 

This team has NO quit

YEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!

Time for Mitch to blast one here!

Try something cute on the bases with Buxton here?
