MVP-"type" season.

 

 

Drink.

Wha?? Workplace rules waived? I can't keep up with you young whippersnappers.

Tough first game matchup for Hicks. welcome to the bigs kid!

I gotta call right here...

Looks like Verlander would rather face the Hammer.

Tying run up. Go Willinghamersie.

All this talk of drinking is corrupting all the twelve year olds in this game thread.

Turns out it was just gas. Happens a lot to me these days.

You lose.

Yep, go and use that wooden thing there Hammer.

Damn, I hope they cut him off at 100 pitches.

Turns out it was just gas. Happens a lot to me these days.

 

Well, the two of them do go hand in hand

Good chance they were going to be corrupted by something anyway.

You lose.

Too true. And with it likely went the last meaningful AB of the season.

12 ground ball outs? Good Lord.

Cabrera would have had that

12 ground ball outs? Good Lord.

Out of 15 or 16 chances. Not shabby!

Hm. After five innings, three hits. Mauer, Morneau and Florimon: One Of These Things Is Not Like The Other Ones...

I live in my workspace, I can do whatever the hell I want.

Racist!

I know I know. It's Florimon, right?

It seems encouraging that Worley has now put together 4 scoreless innings after a shaky beginning. Now the Twins need to get to Verlander.

Florimon just wanted to bring some diversity to the set.

Alright...it's not Verlander.

I missed the first few innings at work, but looking at how things started, you have to like how Worley finished.

Racist!

 

Never could stand those Canajuns.

Quality Start for Worley, but not for Verlander. Love that stat.

Never could stand those Canajuns.

 

You spelled Canucklehead wrong.

Quality Start for Worley, but not for Verlander. Love that stat.

 

I know, lousy Verlander only went 5 innings.

Plouffe!!!

Yes, ER and inning wise, I'll take that from Vance all year. But that could easily have been 5 - 6 ER today.

 

Also, Twins should have one run on the board. How you spoil a lead off double with Doumit at the plate on a 3-0 count and don't score the run is pathetic. At least we are still in the game.
