Sano could teach a class on making the third out on the bases

The subtly here is that now Cave isn't leading off the next inning.

IF, if Rooker does not pull a one year flashamatic season like Cave did; It would be great if the Twins could get Nelson back next year and have him, Donaldson and Rooker as a Bomba squad.

 Duffey’s outing tonight: Four cookies, only one deposited in the outfield cookie jar.

(trying to describe his performance with a backwards metaphor)

Get Rickey Robinson here to teach Sano how to steal bases!

I was at a Twins game when Sano made the last out of the game at third base in a game the Twins lost by one run. He doubled to right driving in a couple runs, but the big man tried to make third and was a dead duck.

Beware Cave leading off an inning 

Now pitching.... everybody's favorite malapropism waiting to happen... Buck Farmer!

Duff spoiled Pineda's pristine line. Bummer. What else to expect?

What's the over/under on Pineda going to Padres tomorrow?

Sano is not a smart baserunner

He just runs too long in one spot.

Just tuned in... who is the second voice with Bremer tonight?

I kinda like Sano being aggressive, but it seems like he vastly over-estimates his speed on the base paths.  Weird really....

Was that an early 2016 game? I seem to remember something like that. He was hustling trying to make a play but the freelancing cost the game.

Sounds about right. I do remember that I was in the third base stands with a great view of the play.

He's the next Darin Mastroianni! 

The first Darin Mastroianni was quite enough!

I wonder if Donaldson put some face powder for his pose at home plate for his next dinger.

The sad thing is that we probably already have some guy named Rickey Robinson teaching our players baserunning skills!

Sano is 25 lbs from being a fast base runner.

How many pounds shy of that classification is Josh Donaldson? That slow roller had me expecting a closer play at first.

He's not pounds shy, he's legs shy. ?

It's too bad Donaldson rubs some people the wrong way.  He's a pretty good player, but a little bit abrasive.  He needs to adopt the 'bobble head syndrome'.

Only 3 more outs...

Wish more guys were "abrasive" on this team, nothing wrong being competitive....
