HIP, HIP....

Criminy, i missed more than i meant to...

 

What all did i miss?

OK now I’d be fine with Colome in the 9th.

Hit and run!!! I love that with Simmons

Simmons!!

 

Criminy, i missed more than i meant to...

 

What all did i miss?

Kirilloff and Buxton. And the bullpen (thus far).

Actually, I take that back. Still no Colome. I don’t trust him with a 7 run lead.

BEN!!! Good to see

 

How are we to take official scorekeepers seriously if Polanco's infield dribbler is called a hit?

 

We were supposed to be taking them seriously?  I thought it was just a nepotism gig for shirttail relatives of MLB execs.

 

Kirilloff and Buxton. And the bullpen (thus far).

Sounds like a good game so far!

Why not tack on a HR here, Buxton

GRAND SLAM BUX ... it's my call ...

Orrrr not...

Not that way ... oh well

 

What justification did they give for sending him down? Especially after this game?

Sano being recalled 

Ronny Rodriguez has more grand slams at Target Field since 2019 than the entire Twins team does.

Remember, Kirilloff can't swing in a 3-0 count in a blowout! Because dumb unwritten rules!

More than you meant to.

Dear Twins,

 

Please save some runs for tomorrow.  The Bombo family will be there.

 

Thanks,

Bombo

 

 

PS You still owe me 60 bucks from when that Chana Masala burned through my loafer. But I'll call it even if you crush the Royals again.

I can't believe I'm saying this but...Alex Colome should be on the mound right now

Enjoy the game! I want to get tickets to see the Twins when they come to Chicago, but it doesn't look as if those tickets are on sale yet.

We were supposed to be taking them seriously?...

It was the nominal theme of the intro.

 

Seriously taking of things.

 

But that's purely optional.

More than you meant to.

Yup. I missed that.

Great win!

This isn’t low leverage enough for Rocco. Sheesh if not now, when, Rocco?

Twins WIN!!!!

 

Pineda was good through 5, the defense was amazing tonight headlined by Byron Buxton, and the AB's were as good as they've been all year. AK is a fantastic hitter, and was finally rewarded for hitting the ball hard. I liked the hit and run that we saw late in the game. Going to need some more of that if there aren't going to be a ton of homers. Bullpen was good. Congrats to Ben Rortvedt for his first MLB hit!!

 

See y'all tomorrow, Go Twins!!!

Buxton is the real deal Holyfield

Concur. It would be a privilege to watch him do this for 120+ games this season and future seasons

Do the Twins have an annual Father-Son game?

I think they do a mascot game. He could get one by TC Bear
