Worst basrunning team I’ve ever seen

[rwilfong86]

Not a Twins game without at least one baserunning blunder. 

[RpR]

Twins need a left fielder with a throwing arm and accuracy like Adell has.

Okay, that’s um…that’s uhhh…

What happened to the Byron we saw last year?

I mean…this year he’s sitting at a 130-something OPS+…compared to a career 108. So…

I'd start a ham sandwich over Beckham.

Would that go with melted cheddar or swiss? Either way sandwich would have a better chance against the hard-slider.

If he learns how to hit again.

He was tagged out. Not sure how that's stupid.

Having a hard time seeing these on my phone. 

Maybe you could send me 3 or 4 pounds of finished product so I get a better idea of what it looks like.

I'm still waiting on last night's 20 bucks. 

Oh, and the mods asked me to work on IT security. Could you send me your S-I-L's email address, so I can use that as your recovery method?

Only if he doesn’t also hit like Adell does.

Really, I learned in Little League you can’t overrun 2nd base. It’s a good rule.

[Game7-91]

Dodgers on the way to #12 tonight, a mere 13-3 lead over KC.

Me thinks we caught them at a bad time.

But as the old adage goes, no one has ever won the World Series in August.

Love it when the kids go from home to 3rd in tots league. It is actually a brilliant strategy, and would definitely change the nature of the game if MLB would adopt a "run wherever you want to" rule.

And it sounds like Polanco was toast. 

[AussieG]

Bundy has been good for us this year, but I found that pretty funny

[USAFChief]

Did Bundy fall asleep facedown in a patch of poison ivy?

That would be like Calvinball!

[USAFChief]

Call me crazy, but I'd be ok with some runs here.

Not sure Bundy's good for a shutout.

[BH67]

Bundy at 57 pitches through four.  That's 100 through 7 if this pace continues.

[jkcarew]

Smartly pitching around Kep

Over run,   Yes,  that was a slide,  to old to explain what i meant
