Wow that doesn't happen much between those two.

[bsroyals54]

I knew we were supposed to lose this game, but not like this. Hosmer and Cain out with Guthrie starting, the odds are not in our favor at all. Still they have 2 lousy runs

[lewdog]

Lost it maybe but looks like they both pulled up? Should have been Gordon's ball.

[C3HIEF3S]

Butler grounds out to short. Never seen him do that before.

The Twins were also his first broadcasting job.

[petegz28]

[Dartgod]

Now the Brewers are trying to blow a 5-1 lead against the Twins.

5-3 now, 2 on, 2 out. Top of the 9th.

DeezNutz is here in spirit "If Dyson fields a baseball cleanly today it will be his first time"

[BWillie]
