Now the Twins are laughingstock of the laughingstock ever!  Boy!, they are stunk!  

Poor pitching is killing the Twins!

Summer stock!

He did indeed say that, and he reasoned, if I’m not mistaken, that the white Sox were missing hittable pitches. What a doozy

The Common Man is going to have an entire bracket dedicated to the preposterous things Twins broadcasters say next year.

With the way this one is going, willans might be able to get his revenge tonight 

Let's hope not!

In a vacuum, that might be a fair comment.

With the constant sugar-coating of an awful season coming from these guys (in my opinion), maybe not so much..

I like sugar...

Roy says the twins need to capitalize on that error. The only thing they’ve been capitalizing is the S in Suck

Dude, not rationalizing.  I'm saying if the normal way the game is played is for hitters to attempt to get runs across the plate, then watching 3-0 meatballs sail by is a hitter acting in a way the normally would not.  I think it is disrespectful to the game and your opponent to not do your best, and in my opinion, grown men shouldn't be upset over another grown man giving full effort.

Yup, manly men, being manly!

Okay friends, let’s dial back on the “ruining baseball” conversation before it gets personal. 

Thanks!

The twins are ruining baseball plenty for me.

Well, report it to the mods, and they'll give 'em a warning point.

This year’s team has jaded me. Not once did I think they would score a run there.

Agreed.

Away from the game for a few minutes and the first thing I heard when I came back was Bremer saying "Twins trying to do something with the extra out".

I caught myself assuming that the Sox made an error, but then suddenly wondered if MLB is just giving the Twins 4 outs every inning to restore them to some semblance of competitiveness.

Yeah..

 

I don't rue winning baseball. I rather like it.

Just looked it up--the Twins are second worst in baseball in IFFB%, at 13.7%.

Alright. 

 

Extra inning practice here. Runner on 2nd no outs.

With the lob balls willans was throwing up there, I felt like I was watching one of those trick softball games they used to show on espn back in the day. The king and his court I think they used to be called. Let’s see how far we can hit it out. Yermín did exactly what he should have done to that side show.
 

Everyone thought it was entertaining to watch the chubby fun-loving guy throw the eephus. I thought it was embarrassing, especially considering it’s not the first time he had to pitch

I think you have your Kings mixed up. It’s a good thing  Eddie Feigner is on that mound up in the sky. He didn’t take kindly to being dissed.  There weren’t many hitting it at all, not to speak of how far.
 

From Wiki:
On February 18, 1967, Feigner appeared in a celebrity charity softball game against many Major League Baseball players. In the game Feigner struck out Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Brooks Robinson, Roberto Clemente, Maury Wills, and Harmon Killebrew all in a row.^[1][

Bailey Ober, new closer.

Ober can do extras if needed.

At least we're the second worst at something!

Well, Dick and Roy think Ober will have a long MLB career, so I better add him to my dynasty team now.

Like I said, not a bad start in a vacuum 

Thank you Bailey. Rocco was sweating bullets in the dugout if you didn’t get that last out. 
 

Jonron!

Sano breaks up the shut out.

They did hit too though, didn’t they? They were the globetrotters of softball 

SANO!!!!

Wow twins lucked out missing trout for the DH with the angels. We’ll still lose, but only by less than double digits
