Miranda turns a triple play. (3-6?)

[Parfigliano]

That was fun.  Now get offensive

Guy caught stealing for 3rd out.  Batter is potential runner stranded at plate

Or picked off by the catcher, and if it is on ball 4, the batter is now kind of a runner who hasn't made first.

 

Meh, we duplicated some stranding, so the cycle is kinda moot.

[LVTwinsfan]

The Twins get a lot of triple plays

I'm not sure I agree with pitching around Seager with a runner on and no outs but....maybe Gray has other ideas

Lol....well I am sorry I doubted you Sonny.  That was great

Heh

 

[IndianaTwin]

Gray at 38 pitches through four innings, so I’ll get an early start…

”Think Rocco will send Gray out for the fifth?”

[SwainZag]

Two triples and a triple play.....?

[IndianaTwin]

Who had Urshela tied for the team lead in triples in late August?

If only we can knock one of 'em in.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh well. Just a long strike...

[PDX Twin]

Ragans has already doubled Gray's pitch count, and we just now finally scored.

[Parfigliano]

A run !!!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I'll take that. Nicely done, Gordon!

[SwainZag]

On the board!

Is that stranding someone at home?

Couple more shots like that and Duran will be saying, “No mas.”

But I repeat myself. 

[SanoMustGo]

Finally broke through against the Rangers stud pitching staff....LOL

[RickOShea]

WTF?

[LA VIkes Fan]

Well that was frustrating. So who's worse to have on the roster - Beckham or Cave? The correct answer is . . . yes

[Parfigliano]

Gotta sub .100 DH that cant even advance a runner

[SanoMustGo]

Just bad baseball

[Danchat]

This team is just so awful with manufacturing runs. Why the heck is Gordon stealing 3B? He can usually score from 2B! Beckham needs to go back to AAA. Ugh.

[IndyTwinsFan]

All that effort for one measly run.  Only good thing is that it's better than not scoring at all.

I've seen better for sure.

 

But never a dull moment has something going for it

[SwainZag]

Jesus that went a long ways
