One run leads are fun.

Thielbar, points to Buxton in dugout and says, "That's for you, bro"!

[ashbury]

That Buxton chap is rather good.

Pretty sure Buxton is in centerfield right now.

Buxton is so fast that he can be anywhere, before anywhere, before you finish typing.

[wsnydes]

That was quite the feast or famine inning.  Leadoff HR and then striking out the next three.

[RickOShea]

Before I forget, I want to wish Happy Mother's Day to all the Ladies!

[MadHits]

Calling a Larnach bomb to retake the lead.

Thielbar gives up a home run. By the end of the inning, his ERA drops from 10.13 to 10.

We can trot out Satchel Paige's line about Cool Papa Bell: so fast he can turn off the light and be in bed before the room gets dark.

Big deal. That has been easy since the clapper. I wonder if that was named for Cool Papa?

That seems like some sort of PED.

I'd demand that you be tested immediately, but I'm not sure what that would entail.  Proof that you paid your electric bill?

Semi-high leverage Jax works again.

[stringer bell]

I believe that was aTwinsFanInMaryland on TV before the Orioles half of the inning started.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Is Byron coming to bat again?

Shocked, honestly. I was ready to move on from him. 

[MMMordabito]

The Captain has ordered you to swab the deck and get rid of the Odor.

[MadHits]

Damn, direct hit the Correa's right hand?

[Sielk]

Ouch. Painful night for Carlos. Hope he is okay. ?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Me too.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

A triple.

 

Let's keep him there.

[mrtwinsfan]

Would it be wrong for the Twins to maybe hit or ? a oriole player ?   twice to our guy ?
