Seeing Montgomery storm off the field with "Let it Go" playing in the background was pretty hilarious 

[USAFChief]

I'm a pretty good lip reader...Montgomery to ump: "funk human!"

 

Dunno why that got him tossed.

There we go. I feel better for the moment,

I’m also drunk, so

I slam a brewski on every home run,,  twins are turning me into a --   love it

Random Pitching Change Talking Point:

 

Sign Lindor as a Free Agent in a couple of years

or

Stick with Polanco??

[notoriousgod71]

I get annoyed that there are about ten teams in this league with a roster full of guys I've never heard of.

[twinsnorth49]

I guess it was the umps fault Garver hit that ball 400 feet to straightaway CF.

One seems like a realistic option.

 

I'll be sorry to see Polanco go.

[jz7233]

2 more homers please!

[FlauerPauer]

Polanco needs to stop throwing his shoulder out. Keep it in and drive the ball. He's been flailing wayyyy too much lately.

[gocgo]

 

Even funnier than the ejection would have been if Montgomery was chirping at the ump and Yost went back to the mound to settle him down and then had to take him out for multiple mound visits.

Yost to Montgomery: Hey, kid.  I don't have anyone warmed up and I really need to get you out of here.  Let's wait for the ump and then I'll let you drop a couple of f-bombs on him.  You'll feel better and I'll get a fresh arm out here.

[mrtwinsfan]

Cruz at 398   need 2 for 400  nice to see him do it here

[USAFChief]

One seems like a realistic option.

 

I'll be sorry to see Polanco go.

we got room for both, what with ALL THE TIME OFF ROCCO GIVES THESE GUYS!!1!

We're playing checkers, and they're over here playing 4D chess.

[twinsnorth49]

Definitely weak ejection.

Polanco 5 million a year,  Lindor gonna go over 30 a year easily

[LVTwinsfan]

I thought it was great. call out the umpire.

[tvagle]

 

2 more homers please!

2?? I'm hoping for 26 more to average 2 per game

So you're saying...

[VATwinsFan]

This year the Twins have scored 235 more runs than KC.

 

Except for tonight.

[USAFChief]

Dick: The Twins are 3 for 8 in stolen bases in the second half,"

 

Chief: "The Twins have three steals in the second half?? Are you sure?"

[MNT1996]

That should be an error
