Game Thread: Detroit Tigers vs. Minnesota Twins, 5/24, 6:40pm CST

What a dominate outing from Sonny Gray. He battled some issues at the start of the year not being ready out of the gate, and then the injury, but he's been really really good since rejoining the rotation. Clearly the anchor of the rotation, even with Joe Ryan's success. 13 swings and misses, with all four pitches having at least 2. Just phenomenal stuff.

Wait. Pitchers are allowed to pitch 7 inings?!

[LVTwinsfan]

Ok Twins, feel free to score some runs

They could replace this plate umpire with a random-number generator!

Not Duffey, not Pagan, not Thielbar (according to at least some), so one trusted relief arm is Joe Smith and the other is Duran? If so, they need more late-inning bullpen arms.

He can be good (or bad).

[Sielk]

Looks like we got the good version of Duffey tonight. Thankfully. 

Duran for the ninth?

[Muppet]

Meh. The opposition wasn’t that strong, but Duffy seemed to do ok. Can’t argue with a couple strikeouts and easy work if Schoop. Maybe he’ll end up pitching well soon.

[mrtwinsfan]

Duran #1   Pagan #2  old guy  3rd,  after that ???????? , one mans opinion

[Parfigliano]

Any one going last game against evil empire then 1st game TB?

[stringer bell]

Let's wrap this game up, Duran.

[Don't Feed the Greed Guy]

So should I drive 200 miles to the Twin Cities tomorrow for a Twins/Saints doubleheader? 

Rain in the forecast...

[Aggies7]

Lol Baez acted as if he hit that one to Duluth 

[stringer bell]

While they are ahead 2-0, the Twins could be comfortably ahead. This is the kind of game that you really feel lousy about if you let it get away.

I really can't see how or why the Twins (and the Saints) will play tomorrow. 

[Mill1634]

It can never be easy..

[Aggies7]

Duran Duran dancin on the sand

[PDX Twin]

Great positioning there. Correa was in exactly the right place.

[TwerkTwonkTwins]

Not the win I expected, but Sonny Gray was lights out! This starting pitching is leagues above what anyone could have expected.

 Been on a work trip in NYC this week. Tomorrow is the last full day. Saw the Empire State Building at night last night. Saw it in daylight today, the Rockefeller Center, Times Square, and Ellis Island. Tomorrow afternoon will be Ground Zero for sure. What else do I need to see before my flight at 9 PM? Wish I had time to see a show at Broadway or a game at Yankee Stadium.

[Mike Sixel]

And once again, the new manager gets the awful bullpen decisions right....

[operation mindcrime]

Way to go Twins!!!!! Thank you Red Sox!!!!!
