A team finally shifts LoCain up the middle. Took long enough.

Exactly.

I'm so sick of players jogging to first. IT'S 90 FEET!!! RUN!!!!!

can see it's already going to be that kind of game....now Hud just jinxed us...1-0 coming up if not 2-0

When a guy is having a mental lapse in his mechanics and reverting back to things that didn't work, isn't it up to the coaching staff to catch that and say something immediately? When Hos had his issues, Moose too, where was the in-season correction from the coaching staff?

Plouffe with his best Dusty Coleman impression

Plouffe is an unfortunate name to have.

[lewdog]

The Twins have some bats that could make this ugly today if they are seeing Duffy this well early.

2 pitches, 2 hits, 2 doubles, 1 run......I don't what the problem is with this team but we can't pitch for shit, we can't hit for shit and lately our defense has been shit

[petegz28]

and when they get a pitch to hit, they are driving it to the gaps...

when we get a pitch to hit we are hitting it rather softly to an infielder...

Falling all over the mound on his follow through
