Jax will stay in until the game is tied. Rocco won’t let him lose it

[RpR]

A Cleveland home run and every thing changes.

[Danchat]

That was a pretty bad outing for Jax, good thing we had a big lead...

Same problem with the bottom of my chest freezer.

What ... no mystery meat stew for you?

[RpR]

Jax is flustered, same thing that happened to pitchers against Houston.

It’s a meatball

[David HK]

For God's sake...

[RpR]

Twins are going to walk their way out of the division lead.

Well if I made mystery meat stew it would no longer be in the bottom of my freezer. Duh.

[Buffy the Twins Fan]

did anyone catch who's coming in to replace Jax??

[AceWrigley]

Like Joe Smith couldn't have started the 7th?

[RpR]

Just imagine if Lewis hits a grand-slam in a losing game.

[tony&rodney]

This one is totally on the Twins managers. Jax has pitched well this year and hasn't been in a game in a week and remember the Twins even used Nick Gordon. Anyone who ever pitched a hundred baseball games will tell you that nothing disrupts control and command like not seeing any game time.

"It's hard to throw with both hands wrapped around your neck."

 

Who said it?

[RpR]

I wonder if Smith can qualify for the All-Star game

Is that Royce Lewis during his rehab?

[stringer bell]

Gordon and Jeffers ripped those balls. 

[Danchat]

Oh, I thought Cleveland was using a hitter as a pitcher, but I didn't realize Gose converted to being a reliever after last being an outfielder 6 years ago in the majors...

[AceWrigley]

Gose can fling it.

Heh

Ah the series where Cleveland swept the Twins to win the division.

[USAFChief]

Was sorta hoping not to see Duran tonight. 

[Muppet]

Whoa… good thing joe smith only has to pitch 1/3 if an inning. Wouldn’t want to save the pitching staff on a blowout.

Cleveland finished 6th. In the AL East.

Safe at first, the difference 4-6 inches in height can make.
