Buxton just made a play that most people can't make. 

Heck, most baseball players can't make.

Lets start handing out a few more extensions!

Okay ... now ... to be fair ... the Rays' feed replayed that after commercial break.

I like Cron's non-chalance as he catches that throw. Just a giant FU to the base runner.

 

I loved Cron's nonchalant catch of Buxton's throw.

Heh ... catches it, steps off base ... points out at Buck ... inning over.

 

I'll bet a large amount of money that Jan was chosen from a focus group. 10 people in a room looked at a variety of actors and decided that she was the most "trust me" looking of the bunch.  

 

All that work just to attach her to really bad Ad copy. 

And she's had this gig for what, 5 years or more? I'm sure she has earned literally millions of dollars. Nice work if you can get it.

 

Riverbrian's are rare but if you leave a plate of Buffalo Wings in the backyard... they will come around.

I'm watching the Ray's feed too. They've been very complimentary of the Twins.

Actually ... they've always been fairly fair ... at least they've never stuck out to me as being overly homerist.

The gal who's really made a lot of money is the actress who plays Flo in the Progressive commercials.

Ghetto Rays' bullpen ... They have those at Single A

Great baserunning.

Buxtons' throw clocked at 97.2 MPH!!! And 302 feet.

Need to take a hard look at Sano! Only 2 hits and an RBI today.

 

Also only has an OPS of .986

Not the worst play by Sano to overrun second base. A good throw would have resulted in an out at the plate so trying to get them to cut the throw was the right thing to do.

Looks like a few more people in the stands today.

Twins have scored 3 or more runs, in 25 straight games. A NEW franchise record!!!

They're mostly all Twins fans.

Listening on the radio, and not only was Byron fast enough to get back to the wall, but then he even got to a mic in time to send it to a commercial with the promo to catch the Twins on WCCO!

I'll bet it's awful playing the Yankees or Red Sox with their fan bases in Florida.

Yeah but now she can't have a meal in a restaurant without people coming up to her and asking her for autographs, trying to take selfies with her, confusing her with Flo. wanting to show her the Toyota in the parking lot and the people like Chief who are begging her to just stop. 

Just tuned in. My Gawd, those are ugly hats!!

And those commercials are fantastic. Every one of them. Imaginative. Funny. Interesting. Creative.

Those Rays powder-blue uniforms omg lol who the heck would wear those

Just tuned in. My Gawd, those are ugly hats!!

I like the classic TC.

8-6-2-4-5-4 on the Sano out. According to Atteberry, that combination will get you the Trapper Keeper out of Corey Provus’s junior high locker.

 

I so wish Gladden would stay “on assignment.”

Probably the only reason there's enough ticket sales to keep the team in St Petersburg.

And we represent this with commercials in an all-white store with identical white boxes on the shelves and everyone wearing white."

Am I the only one driven nuts by the fact that Astudillo is batting 3rd again? The guy has zero plate discipline, a team-low .677 OPS, and is an awful baserunner. It's nice to have a 3rd catcher, but he shouldn't be getting DH at-bats and if he's in the line-up he should be near the bottom. Kepler was 2/3 with a HR off today's SP, probably would have rather seen him in the lineup despite a left-hander pitching.

the Twins lead the league in a bunch of offensive categories, so maybe you are the only one
