odd to send Sano there.

Profound. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Seriously. What the hell was that?

[Squirrel]

Who waved Sano around?

[Nine of twelve]

To echo what someone else in my house just said: "What did they do that for?"

[Mill1634]

Absolutely stupid send there. Your best (or 2nd best) hitter coming off with guys on 2nd and 3rd against a guy who is struggling.

 

Stupid. 

[LVTwinsfan]

I know there’s two outs but Sano should probably be held up there

There was hope Buxton would lap him.

[garn from vancouver]

sending sano? really?

[MMMordabito]

Whoa, Tommy, whoa!!

[kydoty]

Carlos Correa was the next hitter.  There was zero reason to send Sano.

Seen  a few guys out at home trying to score on a past ball at Target Field, and some just stay at third

Yeah, that's the benefit of a hard surface like that.  It's best to catch the ball in the first place though!

[Sielk]

Why the send a slow runner like Sanó there with your $35M superstar coming up to bat next???

[LA VIkes Fan]

Well  that was ugly. I guess with 2 strikes you take chances, but with Correa up next? Hmmm....

Tony Diaz absolutely can’t be third base coach. He’s done this way too much.

I hate soccer, I don’t watch it or think of ways to make it better, I’ll just watch a ballgame instead

I agree

[Puckett34]

I feel like if Sano picked up the send earlier, he may have had a better chance. But he had that little hesitation before rounding 3rd.

Soccer? What are you even talking about?

Smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer in his lazy boy by the looks of that pic!

[Squirrel]

Ugh

[Mill1634]

Lazy baseball by both middle infielders there.

So he doesn’t have a good arm?
