Lol went to the bathroom and for some reason had a feeling Ploufe went yard. Needless to say that I wasn't surprised.

If Olt slides normal he gets in I think. Brantley looks like Kevin Costner's/Ray Kinsella's dad on Field of Dreams, who is also a catcher.

Nice catch Avi.

QUOTE (AlSoxfan @ Sep 4, 2015 -> 10:44 PM) Good win, Danks pitched well once again against KC. Wish he would of gotten a shutout but a complete game is nice, his first this yr I think. I don't know if anyone has noticed but Lexi has his avg. up to .251 now. He's getting better as usual as the yr. goes on. I cold be wrong but I thought he had a 10 hit shutout in May or June. It was an oddity getting the shutout while allowing 10 hits.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 3, 2015 -> 02:33 PM) Is it ok yet to note that Eduardo Escobar was labeled on this site as "Just a utility player" and he's absolutely ripping us and contributed to the Twins for a couple years now? I wouldn't call him a stud but kinda figured we'd regret the trade.

It's a pretty helpless feeling when you figure the Twins will answer back.

I want to know the people's opinion of the Twins. While they've impressed me compared to what I expected them to be, I'm not impressed with them overall I guess. I really don't understand how they're playing this well. It's nothing new how they get timely hits considering they've done that over the past decade plus. They don't hit for average very well, don't have a lot o power. What they do is they don't leave people on base. They are way ahead of 2nd place for least runners left on base this year. It's unbelievable. They have a lot of young talent obviously, I just don't believe they're worthy of a playoff spot. They only have 1 winning month record wise all season.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 2, 2015 -> 09:21 PM) Good job so far by the bullpen. The Twins are pulling a Sox. lol they probably have the Sox right where they want them. Bases loaded walk? We shall see. Hopefully not.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 10:08 PM) f*** NO! I 2nd that. They have no business making the playoffs yet somehow probably will.

This will probably be a 5 or 6 run inning.

Gotta love the prototypical clutch error against the Twins. Always seems to happen.

So far 21 ER vs Minnesota in 25.2 innings. And 44 ER 148.2 innings against everyone else.

The Metrodome curse has found its way down the street to Target Field.

QUOTE (Mike F. @ Sep 1, 2015 -> 07:36 PM) What is with Sale and Minnesota? He blows against them. Just joining the super long list of White Sox over the last 14 years.

It's what the Twins do.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 08:55 AM) Wow, I didn't realize the Twins had a four game sweep in Baltimore. Right back in the race. Probably should've lost 3 of 4 to Baltimore if the Orioles defense and bullpen wouldn't have let them down. But that's how it goes.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 26, 2015 -> 11:17 AM) I know. No doubt family and friends were watching it live, or at the very least found out about it on TV. Nightmare day. Yep, people watching their daughter, sister, etc being proud she's doing what she assumingly loves and boom, there she goes. It's hard to fathom being real and we're not directly involved even.

Seeing that made me sick. Can't imagine how the people close to these two are feeling. What a terrible situation.

Nice comeback dudes!

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:05 AM) Did ventura leave the dugout to argue that? I would've loved seeing one of those silly post game ejections.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:04 AM) He swung at the same pitch 2-0 that he took 1-0 and again swung at a ball for the DP Exactly, take a called strike before even swinging. The pitcher was decently erratic in the 9th. And LaRoche isn't really killing it besides killing our offense.

Lol story of the season.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Aug 20, 2015 -> 12:02 AM) Why didn't he just bunt it down 3rd? I'm mostly annoyed he swung at ball 3.
