I know he did TV before he came to Fox, but Mark Grace is a billion times better than Lou in the booth.

I appreciate it if Pods is trying to work the count and get on base more, but right now doesn't it look like he's just not comfortable swinging the bat? I just watched him take a 3-1 cookie, his bat not even moving, and finally flying out weakly to CF. Anyone else notice this?

Agreed, Grace sounds funny though, like hes sick, maybe its just me.

Got nothing. Must be the skin. Oh well I think I found it in an old thread.

Nice AB by Darin

Grace is a freaking dweeb

23 pitches to the first 3 batters with 2 on, very good start for the offense. Now let's get them in.

Grace is a freaking dweeb

But better than Lou, Brennaman etc. on the stick doing PBP.

1-0 on the Kong base knock. Keep this going.

 

Or not. JD DP.

Great at-bats by the first 4 hitters. Dye's swing is way too long right now.

Against a control pitcher like Silva, he should be trying to do some damage on that 3-1.

that first inning was SNB baseball.

 

If silva's not gonna throw strikes, be patient and we'll get our pitches. Great at bats so far.

Throw. Strikes.

Wow what a gift Minny just gave us.

Top 2 Recap

 

Cuddyer singles.

Morneau walks.

Hunter flies out to LF.

Kubel walks.

Tyner flies into a double play. Cuddyer out at 3rd.

 

0 runs, 1 hits, 0 errors

 

After 1 and a half

 

Twins 0

Sox 1

 

Pitch count

 

Silva - 32

Vazquez - 33

Uribe threw to the the wrong base.

the announcers say they don't beat themselves up, just after that, Tyner had it happen.

That would've got over Castillo, if Crede didn't cut his hair.

 

I like everyone going up the middle and the other way.

Vazquez keeps nibbling....this ump has no strike zone, that's not going to work.

 

Good pitch sequence to Mauer going after him.

well at least it wasn't a strike out looking.

Oh man, feels good to be back...

this sucks.

 

I bought the first month package on mlb.tv and it's blacked out. so I'm stuck here watching the Atl/Mets game. good thing I have money on the Braves or I would be really pissed.
