Game Thread: Twins @ Royals, Friday 6/4/2023, 7:10 PM CDT

Looks like Unwritten Rule territory at this point. Both teams are swinging at everything, pitchers are throwing nothing but strikes, get this game over with.

Kinda hoping Shoemaker is gone soon. Call up Duran.

That 1st inning sure was fun!! I'm sure both teams probably wish they had a mercy rule so they could just go home.

Hey break up the Orioles...3 straight wins after beating Cleveland tonite 3-1. Pretty soon they may overtake the Twins!

Wow, the Royals have 1 more hit and 2 more walks than we do. And 11 more runs!!!!

Shoemaker will not make it thru 3 innings.

Didn't you mean 1/3 of an inning?

[AceWrigley]

I really like how the Twins don't make the other team hit the ball out of the infield to score runs.

Alcala must feel real special and wanted. He gets the call down 13-2. Talk about the ultimate slight.

Annie Sabo looking good tonight in that hot pink dress!

The number 13 is very superstitious too...

Apparently so; the Royals seemed bothered being stuck on 13 runs for all those middle innings tonight, so added a 14th run a bit ago...

Way to go Sano and G Cinco!!!!!!!!!

I guess Gordon took offense to my needing to eat more meat post.

[AceWrigley]

Astudillo's ERA down to 3.00.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I love that Gordon hit a home run off of Wade Davis. A memory for him.

[AceWrigley]

I'd love to see Kiriloff take Swervin' Earvin downtown.

Shoemaker, 1/3 of an inning, 38 pitches, sayonara.

[AceWrigley]

Hopefully Nick Gordon gets to play some more.

Sometimes guys like that with short outings can come back on short rest...

Hmmm ... so should we be racked with angst that we're getting the stuffing kicked out of us, or should we be glad that somehow, it isn't worse?

Yes.
