Can't believe we didn't see Correa for Gordon.

13 LOB. Damn.

Now..... extra inning fake baseball.

Is Correa hurt?

Liam Hendriks got awfully excited for an all-star closer who just struck out...Nick Gordon. In April.

I HATE the runner on 2nd B.S. in extras. That's not baseball. 

I wonder how much the advertisers pay for extra innings, and who benefits from the additional revenue.

Too true. Did Baldelli forget he had a perennial All-Star on his bench who BTW can also play shortstop?

One wonders.

 

I can't imagine even "scheduled day off" Rocco doesn't find a PH opportunity for Correa in the 8th OR 9th.

He obviously doesn't care. He has a plan, and a chart, and can't adapt to the actual game circumstances. Not in his wheelhouse.

Maybe saving him as backup catcher?

Horrible 0-2 pitch to Anderson. Need to at least TRY for a K there.

Correa?

 

I'd wager Boras would file a lawsuit if Carlos Correa got within 19 feet of catcher's gear.

This has been the worst umpire for a Twins game this year. Going both ways as well.

Great...Theilbar is warming up.

Shoot.

Welp, fake baseball can certainly sting sometimes. Yeowch.

Truer words have never been written. This is 100% exactly spot on correct. 

Could Kepler have caught that?

FAKE BASEBALL!!! Instead of a runner on first with a 2 out single, we have a run scored. SOOOOOOO BOGUS!!!!

Sano, Godoy and Buxton, what an interesting trio coming up to try and tie/win the game for the Twins.

I've gotten at least 4 loud F-bombs from the dugouts on todays MLB.com feed.

Who will be our fake runner?

Down 1....do we bunt with the ghost runner on 1st?

If only the Twins got the same runner! So unfair!!

I think that last one was actually Smith - after Abreu hit the ball to short and it was clear he was getting out of the inning, he yelled that f-bomb into his glove as he started to walk off the mound.

Fair doesn't make it not fake.

This is what Rocco said about Correa
