5/7 @ Twins

[a700hitter]

Kimbrel needs a punch out here.

[Nick]

Yep, Barnes can suck all on his own. He just looks like a big pussy. I can't stand him.

[Wade Boggs]

Throw JM gas.

[a700hitter]

Do Jerry and Dave know the number of outs today? You wouldn't think that would happen at the MLB level.

[Nick]

This game must mean more to JF. I recalled earlier he didn't want bring Kimbrel in for 4 outs situation. Hmmmm.

[Maxbialystock]

Did anyone blame Farrell for the dinger or for bringing in Barnes. Find me the post where anyone said that.

 

No. Someone did say that Farrell was looking in his binder and not watching the game and was about to blow the game. That's about the same as blaming him for Barnes.

[Jasonbay44]

Huge K of Mauer.

[Wade Boggs]

It was strike 1/4 in box

[a700hitter]

Tough pitch for a called strike on Mauer.

[Wade Boggs]

Keep throwing FB

[Jasonbay44]

Kimbrel has been awesome

[Maxbialystock]

I love it. Mauer called out on a pitch on the corner the ump called a strike and gripes knowing that the Twins got at least one crucial ball called on what was a strike back in the 5th inning. Great inning by Kimbrel!!

[Station 13]

Hope Barnes is more of a 6th inning guy than 8th.

[Wade Boggs]

MLB wants the umps 2 call the high strikes.

He stuck to his rule. This is a 5 out situation thanks to both Barnes and Scott screwing up.

 

Thank goodness Farrell left Sale out there for the 6th. The Twins would have run up a bunch more runs before Kimbrel came in.

[StephenCurry30]

Kimbrel has the cock of a champion.

No it wasn't. It was a joke about Farrell being a dunce. It didn't relate to any game move at all.. Your bad. I know what I posted and why I posted it. And you criticized the whole board based on your misunderstanding of a single post.

Or maybe Hembree would have pitched a second inning and been just fine.

Back in the 5th, I say again for the upteenth time, the ump called a ball on what should have been a strike that was high but in the zone. That would have been strike 3 and prevented the 2 run single by that batter. Sale was not getting calls today, so I'm delighted that Kimbrel did.

Thank Goodness Farrell Put in Matt Barnes to make this game more interesting, or else we'd have a much bigger lead!

[Wade Boggs]

Just don't hit into a DP. So we can get Beni up there again.

[Wade Boggs]

Have 2 plate these runs.

[Jasonbay44]

Big scoring opportunity here, we could really use some insurance runs.

[Jasonbay44]

Make em pay Hanley

[Maxbialystock]

Walking Benintendi and going after the putz is such a no-brainer.

[Jasonbay44]

Big hit by Hanley

[Nick]

Maybe Hanley won't take three strikes this time....

[Wade Boggs]

rope single by Hanley

[Jasonbay44]

Moreland with a huge hit as well, this is exactly what we needed

[Maxbialystock]

Good. The putz amazes with a sharp single to LF.
