MikesVikes Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Twins player Delmon Young got hit by a pitch right before it. So the Tigers were defending themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 I get terrible radio reception downtown here. They don't stream games on the internet. But I can see the play by play on the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swashbucklers Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Twins player Delmon Young got hit by a pitch right before it. So the Tigers were defending themselves? I was at the game and they threw at Thames twice, the first time hitting him in the shoulder and then they came up and in again. I think because he came in hard at second to break up a double play!

SheikYerbuti Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 This play-in game is one of the best games I've seen all year, and I don't give a rat's ass about either of these teams. Â Seriously, this is just great baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I was just about to type that I knew the Twins were in trouble when Crain came in to pitch the 10th... and then Cuddyer gets a triple on what should have been a bloop single.

I thought Leyland was gonna have a stroke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 (edited) Dammit... Looked like Casilla got a bad jump on that tag. Probably the right call to send him, though, with that being the 2nd out. Shake the Gilligan hand. Â Edit: I intentionally misspelled the profanity, and it was STILL filtered.

Gopher Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Dammit... Looked like Casilla got a bad jump on that tag. Yep... absolutely no reason for the runner to leave the bag on that line drive. Either they catch it (and you're tagging), or it gets through/by or drops for a hit, and the game is over. By leading off the bag, he cost himself a precious half-second. If not for that, he may have beat the throw. Clutch throw, though. Â And, right after I mentioned Crain, they take him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 He was bad in the beginning of the year but was pretty good after the break. Yeah... Nothing against the guy. Like you said, he's pitched pretty well, overall. I think I have a bad outing or two of his, from previous big games (might have even been post-season), etched in my memory. Don't know what it is... that guy just makes me nervous when he takes the mound in a close game. It might also have to do with the fact that he doesn't really have great stuff... he just throws hard, and has pretty good control. Basically, a home run waiting to happen, it seems like.

Gopher Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Keppel is the Twins' eighth pitcher of the game... they better end this soon, or they're going to have to dip into the starting rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
