There’s been some hard hit balls but they are all to somebody. Nice play by Arraez

  • First 10-2 franchise start in 90 years   Best record in baseball

  • No, but his bat is on life support. Seems to be a hole in it, about the size of a baseball.  

  • Winner winner, Pittsburgh dinner.  

don't know who's on today, but old friend Matt Capps is occasionally one of the color guys.

He's old?

 

I remember when we traded a good catcher for him.

 

What i miss?

Two outs in the 2nd and Gonzalez hit a little flare to left field, just behind the 3rd base bag. Jake Cave raced around from 2nd base to score.

 

It was initially called foul, but after review it was overturned and the run was awarded!

Dobnak just keeps rollin' ... Nice transition to covering the bag after missing his stab at the nubber

Williams looking like an Ace out there.  Are we really this bad?

Hard to believe arraez could go hitless for so long

Pace of play in this game is a little better than yesterday.

Saving it up for when it matters.

Tom did a YouTube video mentioning Arraez and his low BAbip - unfortunate start for this kid. Making contact, just not getting anything to fall right now.

Go us!

Dobnak pitching like he has some people to drive around later

Dobnak's just really good at hanging 0s on the board. Still only 1 earned run on the year!

8 in a row sat down by Trevor Williams....

How long can it last

Haha pirates finally get on base and immediately run into an out

Looks like the Garver knee-down stance doesn't stop him from throwing guys out.

Great defense by Garver that inning. Right, Chief?

 

How long can it last

I don't know, but it's not like there aren't quality pitch to contact starters who have had strong careers. Regression will come, but so far he's looked like he can hang in the big leagues.

 

Now, how much longer will we wait for some good contact from this lineup?

Couple of dribblers that inning should help Dobnak’s exit velo average.

Whole lotta bugs flying in the faces of the hitters

The pirates broadcasters are practically drooling over their starter. It has been a bad year I guess

Williams is dealing. We need to get to Pittsburgh‘s bullpen.

Maybe that's why the hitters on both sides haven't done anything?

(Counts every pitch)

A likely excuse. The Twins players should be unaffected by anything besides monster Minnesota mosquitoes. Maybe a cicada if it's screaming directly next to their ears.

The defense has been fantastic on both sides
