Game Thread: Rockies @ Twins 6/24/22 7:10 PM

[BH67]

I realize that a key contributor is missing, but this team hitting four home runs off Gerrit Cole in less than two innings and also getting one hit through five innings against German Marquez has got to break the space-time continuum, doesn't it?

Strikeouts take too many pitches Dylan!

Real baseball fans like pitchers’ duels. 

[RpR]

Shifted in a run.

[Mill1634]

Would've been an incredible DP by Correa, but the Twins have to be able to get to Marquez

[big dog]

One run won’t win this game. 

Well, probably not. Definitely not if it’s our run. 
 

More hard-hitting analysis later as this situation develops. Back to you.

Bundy's doing a great job but once his arm gets tired they need to pull him

It was a joke. I like me a good pitcher’s duel

[stringer bell]

Time to score some runs. Only one run for the Twins in their last 13 innings.

[big dog]

Top of the order up, third time through. Here we go boys!

was Cron still on opiates when he played with the Twins? Nosy minds want to know. 

[cHawk]

I really hope the Twins can manage one run against that pitching staff

Next time use the sarcasm font.

Luis Arraez keeps getting down with the OBP.

I’ve finally realized who Bundy reminds me of: Carlos Silva.

I am less inclined to think of this as a pitcher’s duel than as a battle of teams in massive batting slumps. 

[Azviking101]

I can’t believe I’m saying this but why are we removing Bundy for Duffey?

at 60 pitches!?!?!!?

[Doctor Gast]

I hope Duffy does well

I was just going to say put in Tyler Duffy, but I was joking. I thought.
