Even the Dodgers pitching coach is miles ahead of the Twins.

not a good AB. swung at a bad pitch for the second strike and whiffs on a 99 mph fastball for strike three. corey just said the twins are 0 for their last 33 with risp. how is that possible? well, buxton snaps that streak with an RBI single.

Martin might end up being OK. He's had some good at bats last couple days.

these pitchers nearly identical after four innings. both 73 pitches thrown. both have faced 18 batters and both have given up one HR.

johnnie longhair ends the 5th inning threat. paddack didn't do too bad against this dodger lineup. not quite as good as ober--but better than varland.

julien takes a lefty yard for his second HR of the game. did you pay attention rocco? i have to give him credit for leaving him in the game--but how could you pull the guy who has given you your team's best swings today just because the pitcher is a lefthander? wasn't that hard of a decision.

AK gets to bat too. didn't work out as well--but it's still good to see in the 5th inning. maybe rocco's figuring something out. they're still in the game.

twins win. twins win. rocco pushing right buttons today--especially letting julien bat in the 5th against the lefthander.

how'd the ump miss this? instant replay gets it right. i guess it's the same way the ump missed the call in the 9th at first.

ted's takes.

@tlschwerz
The good news: Byron Buxton is crushing the ball when he makes contact. The bad news: Byron Buxton has a 13/1 K/BB
Christian Vazquez ball placement this year on stolen bases is going to nail everyone! Also, Carlos Correa is the master of the tag!
I'm glad Carlos Santana plays great defense for the #MNTwins because his bat has looked completely non-existent.
Baldelli with a masterclass in pen management, and complete stones to stick with Okert there. #MNTwins can go to Detroit with some momentum.

Yeah, that's some shit.
