    16 pitches, 6 outs....we like this efficiency!! Send him out again!!
  2. TwinsCD
    Um, yeah....which is pretty much what I said. If the ball is touching the line, it would be breaking that plane. If there's brown dirt between the ball and the line, then it's not breaking the plane. Not quite sure where the misunderstanding is.

    Wowsers...Hildy got a quick 1-2-3 inning!!! Send him out there for the 7th, Molly (#firstguessing)

    ESCO-BOMB!!!!

    I could answer that question for ya -- it's pretty easy to see if the ball is touching the line or not as it's rolling. If you see brown dirt between the ball and the line, then it's foul. But like anything else in umpiring, it's the angle that you have as you're looking at it. The HP umpire should be straddling the line looking straight down at it. It's possible that Garver's positioning blocked out the umpire and he may have had to move a little off that normal angle and that may have skewed what he saw, especially if he moved to the foul side of Garver to look at it.

    Romero

    Grossman over the Mendoza Line!! He's on fire!!!

    I wonder if Castro would have been smart enough to take the easy out by just picking up the dumb ball.
  9. TwinsCD
    That's the right call. Wayyyyyyyy outside the running lane for one, in fair territory for two....and yes, you have the right to the base but the snapshot of the runner is taken when the catcher throws it, not when it arrives at the base.

    Hale...we've found a bullpen savior!!! At least for that inning.

    After being behind the plate for a high school game today that took 2 1/2 hours to play 5 innings, I didn't think I'd see anything as bad. Reds vs Twins: "Hold my beer."

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  13. TwinsCD
    Yep, Pressly hasn't improved one bit from last year either.

    Anyone wanna explain why Duffey is on the 40-man roster?
  15. TwinsCD
    He's the flippin 'closer'. Do your GD job. And he hasn't done that in his last 2 save situations.
  16. TwinsCD
    Why do we waste our time playing these games? Once the schedule comes out, the Twins should just petition the league to allow them to forfeit however many games are to be played at Yankee Stadium and save on travel costs.
  17. TwinsCD
    That's what happens when you nibble nibble nibble instead of going right at guys. And you can't nibble against the Yankees because they are computer-programmed to not swing at anything outside the strike zone. He gets 2 quick strikes on Stanton and then it's try and get him to chase and he failed. With the exception of Berrios, this is a bad disease that is going through the pitching staff. Hitters are too good nowadays to swing at bad balls.
  18. TwinsCD
    How about go with your best reliever? Why does a reliever have to have a certain role in a certain inning? Isn't the job to get guys out no matter the inning?
  19. TwinsCD
    The lefty-lefty BS is so goshdarn overrated yet every manager subscribes to it and has subscribed to it for a generation. There's so much overmanaging involved in today's game thanks to numbers and stupid analytics rather than sticking to the 'feel' of the game. Reed's had a clean and easy 8th inning? Who cares, time to take him out because the book dictates that I have to put my closer in. Lefty pitcher to face a righty with a meaningless base open and a lefty on deck? Walk that batter to face the lefty. Nevermind that Span was loving every second of this opportunity and his speed won the game.
  20. TwinsCD
    Time for Rodney to be stripped of his closer role.
  21. TwinsCD
    Why does Zach Duke continue to breathe our air with a Twins uniform on? How do you screw up that fundamental as a veteran? No way they have an angle to conclusively see this on replay.
  22. TwinsCD
    I know it's probably the percentage play to set up a potential force at 2nd if you need it but do you really want to face the guy that's killed you for most of the game?
  23. TwinsCD
    Impatient much?
  24. TwinsCD
    At this pitch rate, Lynn will be able to go get warm for the night by the 3rd inning.
  25. TwinsCD
    Is it too much to ask to have a small birthday present of a Twins win tonite?
