This is hilarious.

Looking forward to our Cy Young winner pitching tomorrow night in a climate controlled environment.

Yeah, I had a feeling we had to have a game like this. Had to get it out of the system.

24 Ks in 15 games.

So we’re fielding the A-Team that we have at our disposal and we have our most effective pitcher so far on the mound against an opponent we know and have already beaten twice. But when everything is stacked in your favor, sometimes things don’t work out. I hope I’m wrong but we might be overdue for something like that to happen today. Best to have the attitude that we are the Greeks and the Spartans fighting the invincible Persian Empire just to be safe.

Good for him enjoy it while it lasts.

I hope Sunday’s game isn’t one of those games I seem to remember from previous years where half of everybody who is good gets rested. I don’t think Hinch does this so I think I’ll blame Brad Ausmus because it pleases me to do so.

I didn’t know that was an option. Of course, if I took that option, I would simply be able to watch the Tigers when they play the Mariners (which is what’s blacked out for me in Idaho ) and that’s not worth an extra $50.

If you have MLB TV in Minneapolis, why isn’t the game blacked out?

I don’t care if they have a home run celebration. I’m totally OK with just winning. Winning is enough spectacle for me.

Once again, the radio post game show on MLB radio is interrupted because TV had an ad. I don’t know why they can’t deliver radio broadcast the way they used to. I really like the chat after the game but apparently that’s not what you get for $3.99 a month anymore.

I’m supposing that six innings of 2-hit shut out ball with 87 pitches is the end of Jobe’s day.

Colt singles too.

Tork bomb

In the aggregate all these things such as this and swinging on the first pitch (within reason) and taking bases other teams may not attempt really adds up.

Tork is a speed demon to score on the SF 2-0.

I thought this Paddack guy was “hittable” for more than the first inning.

Do I need to worry about Riley Greene striking out 20 times in 13 games?

OK, let’s get a DP and end this nonsense
