Go Twins!

Anyone else feel good about having Dobnak on the mound tonight? Dobnak or Maeda seem to be the guys right now who are getting it done.

 

Yelich is getting hot finally this year - bad timing for the Twins.

 

Sano and Garver grabbing pine. It's the "A" team tonight. Expect to see at least 2 of May, Romo, Duffey or Rogers.

in case anybody didnt know, Plesac AND Clevinger have been suspended by the Indians for breaking quarantine

Of course Dobnak starts things out with a 4 pitch walk, it seems the whole team is off filter since the Pirates series.

the pitchers are upset they didn’t get to hit

Dobnak is our ace

What i miss?

Arraez breaks up the no hitter!

 

Um, in the 2nd.

Arraez went on a hitting slump purposefully getting outs towards the right side of the field just to allow the opposing team to shift him so he could easily slap balls down the line.

 

Where’s the lie?

Arraez breaks up the no hitter!

 

Um, in the 2nd.

And Adrianza breaks up the 1 hitter.

Alas, Byron's name starts with a B.

 

So goes the micro 2 out rally.

Where’s the lie?

He's shifty!

Cool fact -

 

Dobnak’s fastball had the second most vertical drop out of any pitcher in the majors last season

One run is okay, we weren’t gonna win with zero anyway

I thought Rosario was going to catch that!

 

I thought wrong.

1-0 Brew Crew after 2.

 

Rosario wasn't too far from a spectacular catch to save that run, but well, this is neither horse shoes nor hand granades...

I thought Rosario was going to catch that!

 

I thought wrong.

I approve of thinking.

Uphill.

 

We are going to get our work in.

Kepler bomba? Calling it

See Avila starts with an A.

 

He got a hit.

Kepler bomba? Calling it

I was... close?

Kepler bomba? Calling it

more like a lady finger

I approve of thinking.

I think, therefore I am. (I think.)

 

I was... close?

Works for me!

Definitely not a catch , right call

I don't call that a catch by Yelich. We'll see if they do.

 

Definitely not a catch , right call

definitely a catch. there.

Too lenient on that play

definitely a catch. there.

i disagree

Polanco with good (enough) wheels down the first base line. Glad it wasn't Arraez.
