Buerhle's gotta be near 100 pitches now.

Buerhle's gotta be near 100 pitches now.

5 of the 8 Twin runs have come from the longball.

Yeah, but he's always hyping that he went to North Carolina on every show. :puke

Why not PH for Uribe now? This is a golden RBI opportunity, and Valentin is yucky against lefties.

I like the Scott Van Pelt-John Anderson combo. They had a good one with Rich Eisen-Stu Scott before every Scott highlight included a BOOYAH!

DePaula's day is done. He struggled at 1st, but settled down (with a little help from Sox hitters swinging at the 1st and 2nd pitches). Glad we got some early runs off of him. Let's get some more off the 'pen.

Only if Buerhle gets into trouble. I'd like to see Mark finish it if possible.

At least they're taking pitches now.

Woo-Hoo! A baserunner!

Another bad throw by Jose, but Paulie bails him out with a nice tag.

They're talking with Keith Olbermann. Man, I miss him and Dan Patrick doing "The Big Show" on ESPN.

Buerhle froze Sheff on that one.

87 pitches. When the Sox are at bat, they need to let this guy throw a couple to give Buerhle a rest.

It's now 6-5 Minnesota against Detroit.

I wish they would let some of these balls go by. Buerhle was just in a near disastrous inning. Let the guy get a breather.

I guess the guys have forgotten what it means to work the count.

HE GONE!!!!

That was strike 3. Nice missed call, blue.

Sheesh, this guy never strikes out.

Anybody got a pitch count on Buerhle?

HE GONE!

The last 2 top halves have barely taken 5 minutes combined. Patience at the plate.

Why in the hell is everybody swinging at 1st pitches?

Nicely done, Carlos. He's becoming better at that position with each year.
