Opening Day Game Thread: Mariners @ Twins, 4/8 @ 3:10pm CT

[stringer bell]

One good opportunity wasted.

[cHawk]

What the **** Carlos

[diehardtwinsfan]

Two on and no outs... and nothing to show for it. TwinsBaseball

[Aggies7]

would have been nice if either buxton or correa cut down on their swings instead of trying to hit it to duluth

Donaldson walks off the Red Sox

sigh...

[Mill1634]

Nice to see the bottom of the order set us up for 60M dollars of disappointment 

[USAFChief]

On the bright side, we've got Ray up to 36 pitches already. On pace for only 8 innings.

That's a play by Urshela that few humans make.

What is CCO?  I'm not the most with it.  I have Apple Music but not what the hell I'm doing.  

WCCO 830 AM is the Twins radio station in Minnesota.

 

after listening, they cut away to syndicated blather after the first inning

Yeah, we were poor growing up. I had this cheap little hand held calculator with a broken multiplication key.

 

Yup...

 

 

wait for it

 

 

...times were hard.

Chief ... it was called an abacus ... 

[bighat]

Four walks already for Ryan? Yeesh.

I did not realize Squirrel was blind.  I do remember one season she had a really creepy Eye avatar.

Absolutely nothing about Squirrel is "the norm."

He's referring to a generic squirrel finding a nut. He's not talking about @Squirrel

I'm not blind!

[bighat]

Putting on the huge shift for the dreaded 9th hitter Cal Raleigh and his .179 career average, you deserve to give up that base rap. Bad call Rocco.

Lol ... you know me too well ... I prefer that I'm extremely interesting!  

[USAFChief]

Gonna guess that's it for Ryan.

[Mill1634]

Wonder if Rocco gives Ryan another inning. Pitch count should allow it, but not sure they let him pitch to Winker and Haniger a 3rd time

I could bring that back out ... hmmm ... mind's a thinkin' now! 'What would creep out D. Hocking .... '

[umterp23]

70 pitches might be it for Ryan.  One mistake so to speak and could be on losing end.

Way to go Hocking. You've released the kraken.

That's something a blind person would say

[LVTwinsfan]

Bremer is the absolute worst at anticipating where the ball goes off the bat. “ Driven to the gap!” as Buxton trots a few steps to catch it..  smh

[LastOnePicked]

A hit this inning? Maybe more?

I am not sure how I missed you were from Frostbite Falls.  Does that mean Chief is really Boris?

You'd be nowhere with your jokes if my unnormalness didn't provide endless material from which to draw

[Brock Beauchamp]

Hey look, a run.

[Aggies7]

yankees and twins trade paying dividends for both clubs
