Phenomenal catch by Ced in the 1st to keep it scoreless. 

[BSLChrisStoner]

To the 3rd, no score.

I guess I posted it in the other thread. O’s facing another SP with a sub-3 ERA.

How did the Twins have a losing record entering this series?

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Cuz their offense is def not ok

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Ive calmed down. Ricker said calm down. All teams slump unless its a 100+ win team and even those can lose 5 in a row. 95 win teams usually have a sustained stretch of mediocrity or worse. The really good point he made was that this is the first sign of adversity this year, and really since trying to contend, that this FO,coaching staff, and players have faced. It will be all about how they handle it.

These lineups are whack though. You think Urias at 1b is better than OHearn. You cant start Adley twice in the series behind the plate?


And Rosenbaum has said about the lineups in particular that the stat pack go over it with Hyde every day. Hyde has the final say but they all talk about it every day. So unless Hyde is vetoing a bunch of stuff its not something that goes all on him.

I legit don’t think Adley is healthy. Know he hit the homer Friday though.

C’mon Swirvin’ Irvin, badly need you to keep this train on the rails here. Badly.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Shooo, he gets out of it. Can’t be easy pitching both in this heat and knowing a (singular) run probably means an L.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Hope Hays is okay. An IL stint would suck, but could see Cowser’s arrival in Baltimore (or the Bronx, I guess).

The drop off in attendance with no giveaway is staggering. Really does amaze me that a floppy hat and Hawaiian shirt can drive those kinds of numbers.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Its about the competitiveness of their ABs. They used to grind. Take pitches. Foul off pitches. Absolutely no pressure on these opposing pitchers

[fishteacher]

Great job Irvin...wild pitch followed up by a double....

 

Meanwhile, we can't hit for shit.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Welp, Castro with an RBI double for the Twins, it’s 1-0, and that’ll likely do it.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Took 5 innings but again fall behind. Trying to catch up when the offense is this brutal is a chore. It sucks. 1-0 feels like 3-0.

[fishteacher]

Well, shit...Mr. Splash actually has something worth squirting the fans of section 82 over!  Nice rip Urias!

[You Play to Win the Game]

Let’s go!!! Leadoff double raked off the bat of Urias. Gotta cash in here.
