Ahhhhh, crap.

 

I just tuned in, and the bases are loaded.

Adrianza with the 9 pitch walk.

 

Is that your count hard at work?

What an AB. Adrianza making a case for more playing time

I went to the Angels day game in May and he was hitting like .140 to start the game. Got a couple hits that game and has never looked back.

This would be a good spot to get a big hit

Gibson didn’t take long to remind me that I’m really tired and don’t need to watch baseball tonight.

No worries— this game will still be going when you wake up tomorrow morning.

 

What an AB. Adrianza making a case for more playing time

Only 29 PAs, but a .967 OPS over his last month.

That Castro AB was the exact opposite of Adrianza’s

This bases loaded stuff is getting silly

C'mon Castro, we need a better AB than that. That was weak.

Remember when people wanted to see Adrianza DFA'd

RBI are, were, and always will be the simplest measure of effectiveness. 

 

 

math?

 

That sounds hard...

math are hard

Pitcher just walks 2 - and of course  zero patience AGAIN

Bases Loaded Safety Squeeze??

I like the way you think!

 

I was thinking hit and run at the end of the Oakland game myself.

 

Remind me what safety means in this context?

Hitting with bases loaded is getting laughable at this point

I feel like that’s gonna hurt

Castro is such a bum.

 

Remember when people wanted to see Adrianza DFA'd

Guilty (hope it doesn't reach midnight for him the rest of the year)

That inning will come back to haunt. Bases loaded with 1 out, get zero runs out of it. 

It's like Castro and Kepler didn't just watch German go the entire inning without throwing his fastball for a strike. 

I don't expect a big hit every time the bases are loaded but there's only so many times you can come up virtually empty in these situations.  These guys are better than that.

math are hard

Where are the Hardy boys when ya need them?

2-1 after 2.

 

Circus Boy and Zeno would be proud.

Thanks for asking...

 

In this context "safety" was meant to avoid a double play which would have prompted TD posters to spend 3 pages on the dour state of Twins hitters with the bases juiced

 

In reality it would have safely kept us from having to watch that Castro AB

Nice! 

A little early to be thinking about "Playoff Push Plans" there Twins

I don't expect a big hit every time the bases are loaded but......

... but When I do

 

This is still a very winnable game. German might've used up his weekly allocation of luck to get out of that inning. I hope our boys take to heart the old adage "patience is a virtue"

There's been some nice multi out plays in this series so far.

EE walks up to the plate and looks like "I'm gonna stand here until he throws me a strike"

 

Ok I'll walk to first
