Game Thread: Twins vs. Rays 5:10 PM PST (7:10 PM CDT) 6/25/2019

I voted for him for the all-star game, figured if folks really want to see who's who in the game, they ought to see Buxton. He might only be hitting .260 but if he legs out a double on a line-drive to right-center, folks will jump and shout. it ought to be seen. The fielding goes without saying.

After watching the rotting corpse of zomvie Homer Bailey shut down the Twins....I’m kind of terrified of Blake Snell.

Confeve?

 

I kid. Yes, Twins, go.

[snotboogie]

I miss Buck. Anyone have a non-satirical update?

I’m at the game. I miss him running onto the field. Just watching him run is.... something. (Not satire)

[Blake]

Had to switch to the Ray feed.

 

I couldn't take any more of the Bounty Daisy cutter commercial.

 

Welp, back to Bounty Daisy cutter on the FSN feed, as it appears I cannot escape.

Sano's handled his chances well so far, he's made like 4 of the 6 outs so far.

[Don Walcott]

Nice job, Eddie!! C’mon CJ!

He's looked good so far on D.

 

Today, I really want to see something out of that Offensive Lineman with the bat. How about it, Randall McD... I mean, Miguel?

[Don Walcott]

Tortuga!!

[glunn]

Astudillo beats out an infield single? I wish I was able to see that.

[bird]

 

This game thread got off on the wrong foot.

 

 

Speaking of wrong foot, Ryan's medical stall wudda sawed off the wrong one.

[Don Walcott]

Tortuga!!

 

That was one of my favorite catches ever!!

[snotboogie]

I know Turtle has his haters, but man is he entertaining.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Astudillo rarely makes things look pretty but he does an okay job of getting it done.

[David HK]

That- was simply awesome.

And a nice job by Bartman Jr., getting out of the way.

 

[Blake]

Astudillo made sure he protected the ball as he hit the ground, didn't he? 

[Blake]

 

Astudillo beats out an infield single? I wish I was able to see that.

Well, Astudillo continues to prove that putting the ball in play is better than a strike out.

[Don Walcott]

Schoop shot!!

[PseudoSABR]

SCHOOOPED

Wouldn't it be great to see 9 players with 20+ home runs in the Twins lineup in October?

[bighat]

Well done, Schoop. Maybe those days off did him some good, we'll take a long ball from the #9 hitter any day.

[Danchat]

That was a Rosario-esque HR from Schoop!

Thank heavens for the 26 man roster next season. Custom made decision.

Rosari-o-matic

[ashbury]

Cave's bat against Snell.

 

Cave's bat.

Bat cave.

[bighat]

Rosario doing a great job of hitting what they give him lately! He's looking much more like a batting average guy than a power hitter of late - no complaints!

[Danchat]

Maybe a day off was just what the doctor ordered for the offense! This is more like it!

[VATwinsFan]

Cron-o-matic

[ashbury]

This is a nice inning.
