Couldn't get a big hit there (again).

KC walks off the Guardians and DET is going to be Chicago

[Parfigliano]

Im getting TX TV.  Was Dick saying "theres a drive..." when Miranda flied out?

[Aggies7]

I can’t believe we’re losing this game with how it started. Sums up the last month or so

Sox scored three in the eighth and have the heart of their order up in the 9th. Not quite a done deal.

[h2oface]

Including tonight, Thielbar has inherited 27 runners, and only 7 have scored. Not bad. 

[stringer bell]

Try again to knot this thing up or take the lead.

Better take Jeffers' temperature. Something is not right.

Our baserunners are wasted?

Have they been making questionable decisions?

Let's bring him home. I don't want him to get wasted.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

One more shot at it.

[Parfigliano]

Yuengling commercial.  Didnt know still made that.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Top of the 9th. Need one run to prolong the game and 2 to proshort it.

I had two tonight!

2/13 RISP, 9 LOB. There's the ballgame right there, even with the Caleb factor. Sonny Gray says thanks for letting the runs get credited to me. How can we possibly waste such a performance by Jeffers? And Pagan!

[jimbo92107]

Perfect Pagan situation: Team behind by one run, so he's not in a position to blow a lead. Slightly less nervous, he burns through three guys, no problem. 

Great commentary by team Perk and Hawk. They pretty much outlined all the pitching issues as well as anybody.

THATS A FAIR BALL ANGEL YOU CLOWN

[Mill1634]

JFC Angel

[Parfigliano]

TX announcers say that fair ball

[Mill1634]

SOMEONE has to get tossed right there

[Aggies7]

Please tell me why you can’t review a play because it’s “in front of the umpire”. Only in baseball does that exist. Imagine that rule in the NFL

Bad call number infinity in his hall of shame career

[Aggies7]

Keep claiming prejudice for why you don’t work big games

[h2oface]

Why didn't the plate ump over rule that It hit the chalk right in front of Devil Hernandez. Umpires just are not able to do the job they need to do. No reason not to get it right with every aid you can give them.

Baldelli should have at least asked them to conference. That is allowed. Wimpy!

Angel but then he never should have been there to start

[Mill1634]

Tough loss. Great defense for the most part, and the lineup put up 5 runs but if things are going great this is a game where they put up 9 or 10 runs. Really, really need to win the next 2 as Texas isn't a team you should be losing a series against.

Until tomorrow,

Go Twins

[Aggies7]

What a god awful loss. Early runs, spectacular defense. Alleged best starter on the mound. Nearest division rivals lose again. And no ground covered. Just awful
