Perkins'
walka and hits/inning pitched! Now I know that’s likely to come down as he gets some more innings in, but… ...it is going to come down a little isn’t it?

did you see it?
Gordon and Gladden called it a web gem. Hopefully gameday will have the video.

C'mon Gomez!
Bunting on the FIRST pitch for an out. Leadoff hitters just dont do that kinda crap.

good inning all around
woulda been a little better had Kubel or Young picked up an rbi, but oh well.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 8:29 PM EDT 0 recs
and the White sox lead cleveland 3-1 in the top of the second. Looks like the Twins wont gain ground.
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 8:37 PM EDT 0 recs
yeah but
as good as our first inning was all around, the 2nd was just as bad.

Watching Cabrera's defense at first...
...makes me even more happy to have Morneau on our team.

Liriano
Has a Shutout going through 7 innings. Heres the Line.
7 IP, 4 Hits, 0 Runs, 1 BB, 9 K

Glad to hear, but it’s so weird. Seems like he is good for a couple starts, bad for a couple starts, good for a couple starts, etc.

I wouldnt mind seeing Liriano get called up, Bonser DFA’d and Perkins be put into the Long Relief Role.

Bonser in Long Relief
Boof seems pretty well suited to long relief from what I’ve seen. I don’t have the stats in front of me, but isn’t he a better option than Bass?

well he hasn't done well in "longer" relief roles so far
he was hit for 4 runs in 3 innings earlier this month. And hasn’t really done all that well yet as a reliever. But I do think he could be an effective long reliever.

Perkins
Its a good move by perkins, He threw a Fast Ball a little High and outside to Marcus Thames in the second and it ended up in the Baggie. so.

why did gardy get ejected, i was looking away from the TV
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:04 PM EDT 0 recs
arguing about a warning to both clubs
after Galarraga stupidly threw two pitches at Mauer.

They almost hit Mauer
and the umpire warned both sides. Gardy took offense to the warning being given and was tossed. Galaraga threw one BEHIND Mauer and the next one almost hit him too.
by dthrog00 on Jun 30, 2008 9:05 PM EDT 0 recs
you think the Umpire would Toss Gallaraga out of the damn game. 1 pitch that nearly hit him is a mistake, Two is intentional
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:06 PM EDT 0 recs
and ugh, the White Sox lead the Indians 8-1 in the bottom of the 3rd
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:10 PM EDT 0 recs
yeah
reviewing the videos of Mauer and Morneau’s rbis. Galarraga has been the victim of some poor defense this evening.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:20 PM EDT 0 recs
It's a good turn out tonight
A couple games I was the only one here for innings at a time!

its that way some nights
some nights Jesse is the only one commenting. Other nights its quiet until something exciting happens.

New ballpark
What do you guys think of the new open air ball park?
by dthrog00 on Jun 30, 2008 9:23 PM EDT 0 recs
Looking forward to it, Ive got my Priority seating so Game 1, i will be right behind Home Plate, Cant Wait.
I think their should be a Retractable Roof because with how its been Lately, Snow in April isnt going to go over well.

I agree
The new ballpark should be great. There’ll be some difference for Twins fans because like you say April and October will be fairly cold and there won’t necessarily be a guaranteed game every time fans go to the ballpark (rain outs etc).

Its Nice to See
Twins Fans show up to the games, atleast they arent in Miami, where the Marlins are Hot and they still only draw like 30 people a game.
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:23 PM EDT 0 recs
darnit young
galarraga has a pretty high pitch count already – it would be nice to knock him out in the 5th or the 6th, and put a little pressure on that Detroit bullpen to start the series off.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:25 PM EDT 0 recs
yep
Perkins is looking pretty good tonight. I think. First of all I am not actually watching him, and second he has had some solid defense behind him.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:35 PM EDT 0 recs
keep badmouthing him...
I’ll jump in too if it gets him a triple. : – )

actually that is where Gomez makes up for the infuriating
lack of plate discipline: His speed.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:40 PM EDT 0 recs
Im going to Continue saying Carlos has Bad Plate Discipline, ive done it about 6 times lately and hes gotten a hit all 6 times.
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:41 PM EDT 0 recs
Casilla can't get him in
Grounds out with 1 out and Gomez on 3rd.

ADDA BOY MAUER
Hahahahah the first basemen threw his glove at gallaraga
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:43 PM EDT 0 recs
uffda
I didn’t see it but it looks like another bad play by the detroit defense even if they scored it a single for Mauer.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:44 PM EDT 0 recs
It was actually a Little Knubber off the end of the bat, Mauer had the ball beat by a step or two.
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 9:47 PM EDT 0 recs
hoping
gameday posts the video as it was a scoring play.
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 9:49 PM EDT 0 recs
how can that not be an error?
Thames clearly had the time, but couldn’t get the ball out of his glove like he should have!

I think MLB.tv Does the standard Television Broadcast, Believe you me, FSN North HD isnt really anything to call Home about, it isnt the Best HD, but you can tell its HD

The best I can handle is the 400K feed
It is ok. Not exactly HD though :)

I just listen on the radio
because most games I have on the radio and I do stuff rather than watch it.
So I guess Tony O and I are on different existential planes :)

I'm not sure I could afford a plasma screen
probably have to trade in a few sheep.

I went with LCD
Has worked out really well too! It is also a Samsung.

Brian Buscher takes an extra base
with all that extra speed he has… :)
by montanatwinsfan on Jun 30, 2008 10:02 PM EDT 0 recs
That was a catch
This is the Exact Reason why their needs to be Instant Replay…..Not trying to be anti twins, but that looks bright as day as a catch.
by Tony_O on Jun 30, 2008 10:03 PM EDT 0 recs
gladden and Morris
very clearly are saying no catch. ?!?

Raburn only trapped the ball…look at the way the glove was turned…. the only way you can make a “catch” on that is to trap it. On the replay…. you can clearly see that it was a NO catch.
