Umps wasting no time screwing the Twins
My Uncle Mort and some of Teh "Boys" from the Ohio VFW, put down quite a hefty bet.

Any sway from the umps?

Nice catch by Marwin...

Is the league gonna let Puig serve that 8 game suspension whenever the fuck it’s convenient for the team or what?

The worst thing about Morneau when he's in the box is he never shuts up. Dude, take a breath once in a while.

It would be better if the inevitable implosion could be held off until the more traditional 5th or 6th inning.

WTF Morneau? STFU! It's good for Gibson to have that run in to help his pitch count?

error bites gibson in the rear-but you can't win unless you score at least one. now the twins need at least two.

Double play should have needed it still tied 0-0, but they avoided a big inning against.

They may have given it to Gibson, but that was on Adrianaza and by extension it was on Rocco for not having a more experienced Sano over at 1st base.

Time for Marwin to turn his slump around.

Not going to do it taking a fastball down the middle and swinging at a ball ABOVE YOUR HEAD. Or that half assed swing for the out. He’s been so disappointing after a good start.

Umps strike zone has been pretty consistent actually. It's part of the game and they gotta adjust to it.

They've been terrible. There is a reason even the announcers have been confused by the zone.

I like a big zone honestly. Get the bat off the shoulder
