Twins score this inning

LoMo is back
Before everybody seemed to be on Twitter or aware of Twitter, Logan Morrison used Twitter a lot. He developed a strong following when he began his big-league career with the Marlins from 2010-13. He had a particularly strong following with Phillies fans, who loved the back and forth with him,,

Im okay with it

If he would of Pitched,  might of been , Go Twins

[bighat]

Lot of big swings and misses from Cron since he's been back.

 

Nice to see the guy get on base with a hard-hit ball, maybe it'll spark something.

[bighat]

called it

[ashbury]

ARRAEZ and cheer !!!!

[Aggies7]

I could make a case for arraez for team mvp, even though he’s only been here a few months and they were mediocre in that time

[Dman]

Rare is the rookie that Exceeds expectations but Arraez is crazy good.  How does he keep doing what he is doing?

We’ll now, aren’t you perspicacious.

[mrtwinsfan]

Marwin - nice Hustle

[LVTwinsfan]

We’ll now, aren’t you perspicacious.

a hunch

[Aggies7]

I'm cheering for the Indians to beat the Yankees - I just hate New York that much.

 

Boy, how mad must Yankees fans be that they didn't acquire any starting pitching? They couldn't even get Robbie freaking Ray! We talk about how Twins pitching isn't going hold up in the postseason, but how is New York's going to?

 

I wonder if the Indians could take down the Yanks in the playoffs. They certainly seem to be up to the task...

To be fair, they used an opener tonight and were 12-1 when doing so coming into tonight

[wavedog]

Excellent base running there by Gonzalez to take the extra base

Great strike zone and great quick Hands, Kids here to stay

[bighat]

Nice one, Cave! Guy's batting average is climbing.

[LVTwinsfan]

Diaz held the runner!

[mrtwinsfan]

Twins must be scoreboard watching in NY,,  Even Cave hitting

[VATwinsFan]

Always nice to something from the 9 spot.

[Aggies7]

Cave always hustles

[bighat]

Wow, what a difference good defense makes!

 

A couple errors by Texas this inning and it's 5-0. We'll take anything they give us, frankly. Keep 'em coming!

the Twins have no worries if they take care of their own business

[wavedog]

Nice to see other teams make mistakes
