Sox It To Em

Alexei hits one hard to the warning track, quickly two down.

Betemit Ks on three pitches.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 11, 2009 -> 03:32 PM) For those watching, would you say Colon looks better than Contreras did? Definitely better command.

Gomez pops out. Really impressed by Colon so far.

Crede flies out to right, two down.

Base hit for Cuddyer.

Dye nabs a deep fly ball at the warning track... great play.

Paulie grounds to short, inning over.

Dye flies out. Gotta get at least one home here.

Quentin HBP, he's the master of it.

Lillibridge steals.

Fields Ks on three pitches.

Morneau Ks. Perfect start for Colon.

Morneau crushes one just foul.

I tried listening to Farmer and Jackson instead of the national TV announcers, but the radio is about five seconds ahead of the TV... I hate that.

Quickly two down. Bartolo looking pretty good.

Span pops out... I thought that would be a typical Twins bloop.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 11, 2009 -> 08:16 AM) Baseball's a funny game. We'll probably win this game, the one game out of the first five that looks the least winnable. I hope you're right. All I know is that today seems like a big swing game, resulting in either a dreadful 1-4 start or a 2-3 start with a chance to win the series. Here's hoping the Sunday lineup can produce.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 09:19 PM) I can not wait to watch Corky Miller tomorrow. I wonder if Ozzie is ballsy enough to leadoff Brent Lillibridge tomorrow with Getz hitting the bench after a pretty damn good game today. A Lillibridge + Miller + Anderson combo against Liriano should be fun.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 09:10 PM) What's Jeff Nelson doing these days? Lace 'em up one last time J! Maybe Mike Jackson is still hanging around...

And this ball game is over. I can't be the only masochist here who watched the entire thing, can I?

Here comes an eight run bottom of the ninth. I guarantee it.

QUOTE (Cochise @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 08:47 PM) I like how there was absolutely no mention of the bottom of the 8th. Whatsoever. That's because absolutely nothing of note happened... sigh.

And tomorrow the pitching matchup is going to be Colon vs. Liriano... wonderful.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 08:39 PM) And a blooper brings home 2. Error by Choo in right. If it's any consolation, at least we're not having as bad of a start as the Indians.
