Ehire to me anyway- looks better all around than arries in the outfield !

Funny thing about the Adrianza play: If Gonzo was in RF and Adrianza at 3B, the runner probably would not have tried to stretch to third, because Gonzo's arm is already known. Gonzo could definitely make that throw, maybe even better. 

Need to put ankle and wrist protection on Buxton,  Hate seeing him nicked up alot

 

It's a small world but I wouldn't want to paint it.

Either you're part of the solution or you're part of the precipitate.

NO WALKS PLEEZ

I think our days of calling Giolito a failed prospect is over. This guy's good!

Thorpe looks like he's going to be a rollercoaster ride. Good stuff, but lots of overthrows.

That might be ballgame.

Well Phooey

Little late, Wes ... Should have been out after the walk

5 Ks.... thank god or the score would be really crooked w/ that outfield

Yeah it's gonna be difficult to squeeze a win from this game, but hopefully the Twins can get Giolito's pitch count up so they can get into the BP

You don’t think some of that is nerves in making his MLB debut?

Rain is coming ... hope we can get this in

I'm sure it is, but that's why Johnson should have visited him after the Walk-Hit-Walk sequence. Now the Twins need a couple more 10 pitch PAs against Giolito to have a chance against the bullpen.

i put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time.

Actually a rain delay would be good for us. Would most likely knock Giolito out of the game

Hope we can get some runs. 

The looming sky ... it’s getting closer ... the lights are on ... people are leaving ...

Damn, Buxton!

Rain delay approaching. Gotta get a couple runs in the top of the fifth to avoid a 4.5 inning regulation game.

 

Byron

That guy *checks notes* Buxton is good in the outfield.

Stay safe!

What was that about the outfield defense?

Looks like a tornado is coming through or something. Crazy.

Really could've used another 13 pitch AB from Marwin.

That was exactly the opposite of what I had in mind for the top of the fifth.

Let's just hope the umpires aren't hasty about wanting to call this game if all hell breaks loose.  It's only 2:30pm and both teams have an off day tomorrow.
