I keep forgetting, and it's nice to be reminded, the Twins do know how to play small ball.

Are we talking currently warm or still warm?

He calls 'em as he sees 'em.

I think that bears repeating.

What's got into Adrianza? Not that I'm complaining....

And Seattle does what Seattle does best.

All right! Love the hit and run!

I was wondering if a semi-intentional walk might be in order. Like you, glad it was only a single.

Ump has a hot date.

The Twins bullpen has only been bad lately. I'm sure they'll get back to mediocre in short order.

Wow. Got out of that one.

Double crud.

Crud.

I like the way Pineda is making sure the infield is getting good fielding practice.

Kikuchi:

Looked like a senior moment, to me. Which I've recently become somewhat expert on.

I'd rather discuss a less contentious issues: 1911 versus Glock, DH or pitcher flails wildly.

I don't think Vogelbach qualifies as a happy little tree.

Well, could keep warm through thinking about the 106 it's going to be where I live....

For what it's worth, my comment about 7 or 8 innings was supposed to be ironic. I looked for the Ironic tag, but, didn't find one. Maybe we could trouble Brock?

And Bumgarner. (I was not interested until I looked at Bumgarner's numbers and realized his numbers are a lot better than I thought.)

I could argue about the bullpen, but, only if I was insane or looking to start something for some strange reason. Yeah, the Twins have two options: Get some relief help sooner rather than later or find a way for the starters to go deeper into games. As in 7 or 8 innings. Of the two, finding relief help is probably the more reasonable expectation.

Not going to panic, because the Twins still have a 10.5 game lead but to watch them field their way out of winning a game is hard to take.

Wow, awful fielding followed by terrible at bats. Way to go, Twins.

Yeah, but three errors in an inning doesn't help matters.
