Also, Bremer noted the Twins have a bench of Leon, Cave and Hamilton tonight, so there is that.

Leon, Cave & Hamilton is: 

a) an experimental 70s band

b) the Twins bench tonight 

c) a law firm 

d) a fictional Johnny Carson law firm

Four relievers so far.  1 clean inning.

I have been lamenting the lack of clean innings by the Twins bullpen this year. I wonder if Jax actually leads in that category?

They bought out Jack Prescott's old practice.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Bergman was struck out on a nasty slider.  Inning should have been over.

He left out Beckham.  Maybe he's heard some inside information?

[Vanimal46]

I don’t gamble, but betting the Astros sweep would have been the easiest money you could win. 

[USAFChief]

More GD damage on breaking balls from Megill.

Someone said they saw him with a soccer ball in the clubhouse.

[RpR]

If the Twins score two runs doe Megill get the loss?

[RickOShea]

One last crack at these guys.  Look sharp, hold your head high, play with dignity...................and check your zipper before leaving the dugout.

He actually mentioned Beckham.  I either:

a) fell asleep during his reading of their bench

b) blacked out during his reading of their bench

c) have a vendetta against Beckham

d) thought Johnny Carson law firms only had three names

Dewey Beckham and Howe

The team should have just come out of the dugout in the bottom of the first with their flies unzipped and their jerseys untucked, to get across clearly that they have zero cares about anything but winning.
