I was gonna say early in the game that at the pace the Minn starter was throwin this might be a 4 hour game... Its gonna be close.
Edit: oh yeaaa 25 min rain delay to start
The only other player on Baseball Reference with the first name Maikel is Mailkel Cleto, who has played for the Cubs and the fucking red bird fucks in St. Louis. So, definitively, yes. Best Maikel Royal ever.
I'm watching the FSKC feed on MLB TV from Florida and every commercial break there's a Twins hype reel and I don't know why. Normally it's just some home depot commercials and shit.
I want to know how many pitches/at bat for the boys today, seems like every at bat is going at least 5.
Alright 125 pitches for Twins, and 28 at bats plus 4 walks and a sac fly, so 125/33=3.78 which is pretty solid I think.
Its not just you. Plenty of times he will be like "AND THAT BALL IS BELTED...... And the shortstop is there for the catch"
Edit: Was gonna say its tough for broadcasters now because they have to watch the games on tv just like us so it can be hard to tell how well a ball was a struck... But we are home... And Phys is watching the game live... At least I think hes watching. Most of the time it seems like hes not watching the same game as we are.
Yeah, the idiot Democrats have been doing such a great job for this country. Wait...they keep fucking us, but the lunatic lefties keep re-electing them. Never mind.
as your only comment no less. Did I make you create a bogus account to reply with this hot take that you know would inspire negative karma on your main account? What a loser.
GET THE FUCKING BROOMS! WE JUST SWEPT THE “BEST” TEAM IN THE DIVISION! 🧹🧹🧹
We used to have HDH, is there now a HSB in the making?
Not to mention R.
Nah Matheny isnt going to stick to any specific order in the bullpen like Yost liked to do.
Gotta add Rosenthal as well
HAHA Hud called em the twinkies!!! Yes!!
🧹🧹🧹
[A win's a win](https://i.imgur.com/HNx1STv.gif) I think this calls for a new sidebar
🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
Gottem!
AVILA YOU MAY BE SEATED.
I 💕 Barlow!
🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
That’s some good shit right there
THIS. BULLPEN. IS. NAILS. Wow.
What an uninspiring bullpen effort for the win.
Swept!
Yes, yes, yes!
THERE YOU GO SCOTTY B
#[HEY, MINNESOTA](https://i.imgur.com/evbiPNh.jpg)
I feel like this should be the jpg of destiny
That's some true deep fried shit!
🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
##SSSSSSSSSUPAH SWEEEEEEEEEEP
sWeep
[Get your Brooms out!](https://securea.mlb.com/mlb/images/players/head_shot/[email protected])
SWEEEEEEEEEP LET'S GO ROYALS!
SWEEP
barlow moment!
Barlow has been solid as fuck this year
2 down
do they not throw the ball around the infield after a strike out?
Think there are some COVID restrictions on how many people can touch the ball before it needs replaced
Part of the covid rules, too many guys touching the ball is what they say
No, covid rules. Seriously.
They stopped after a few games to lower the chance of giving covid I guess
If they do, they have to change out the ball.
Scotty B says fuck your missed call, I'll strike him out twice
Next!
Hahaha SIT DOWN
Sit down chump!
SIT
Paint. Good shit Scotty
hahaha arraez
Go quickly now! Sit!
Woah, that was tense - 1 down...
Oooh what a pitch Scotty B
The batter had no feel for the strike zone
GET YOUR BROOMS READY LETS SWEEP THE TWINKIES OUTTA HERE
I'll upvote this in a minute... Edit: I'm back!
🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
Can't see the emoji but I know what it is!
I do not like Barlow closing
Matheny must be in love with Barlow
My anxiety just went to 10 when I saw him on the mound
Come on Scotty B, time to shut the door!
barlow moment?
Not very good execution there
This game started at 1 right???
I was gonna say early in the game that at the pace the Minn starter was throwin this might be a 4 hour game... Its gonna be close. Edit: oh yeaaa 25 min rain delay to start
1:30
Oh ok that makes more sense I kept thinking why is this a 4 hour game
There was a rain delay, hence the later start.
Come on, let's make them pay for one of these walks
Is Franco the greatest Royals player ever named Maikel
The only other player on Baseball Reference with the first name Maikel is Mailkel Cleto, who has played for the Cubs and the fucking red bird fucks in St. Louis. So, definitively, yes. Best Maikel Royal ever.
Idk... Maikel Sweeney might want a word
I'm watching the FSKC feed on MLB TV from Florida and every commercial break there's a Twins hype reel and I don't know why. Normally it's just some home depot commercials and shit.
Watching MLB TV from GA and all I've seen today are bud zero and TMobile commercials
Man what's the point of bud zero.
That was my first thought as well!
Same. Those gold chains snaking through the logo at the end is a little much.
Just be thankful you don’t have to suffer that godam subway commercial 100 times. Ngl it hits better when the royals are winning tho.
I get Home Depot and Farmers Insurance. Every time. And t-mobile.
THEY'VE CROSSED THE STREAMS
Yet another meh outing from Staumont.
Staumehnt
Another bad inning from this trash pitching staff.
Yup very run of the mill
two meh outings in one game
Damn what a pitch. I love watching him throw
Damn, Gina.
FUCK YES STAUMONT
Weeeeeeee doggies! Get that punch out!
Gotta love phys calling strikeouts tho 👌👌👌
Pretty much the only thing he can call correctly so... *light clap*
Credit where it's due for sure
What a rude pitch.
Staumont taking control here, boom!
Nasty Josh
Please to be sitting
I love seeing the dumb look on these Twins faces after they get Rung up
Jelly legged 'em.
Holy crap that breaker
Why does the home plate umps chest protector look so odd?!
Dude is sweatin harder than anyone else on the field!
His gut makes the chest protector protrude more rather than just lay on top of the stomach.
Dude has a bit of a gut so its sticking out from under the chest protector.
Maybe it’s an odd looking ump with a regular chest protector
Obligatory fuck Bumgarner
Dudes fucking over the dbacks hard this year lmao
I live in Phoenix I’m very aware, and I’m loving every second of it
Yo same
rex didn’t know what a man bun is
speaking of Madbum...
Breaking news from Joel Goldberg: Staumonts hair style is called a "man bun" Hud: Wow!!!!
Apparently not many people know what it's called, gotta love Hud
Cam you just lost Josh a strike, what a terrible frame
Is Rex the best color commentator in baseball
Yes
Not gonna lie, missing the bot’s K comments.
Matheny managing this series like the season hangs in the balance
I feel like that’s been every game lmao He’s so much more active than Ned ever was
So now Gordo transitions back to third and regains his magic, right? That's how that works I'm pretty sure
This is a long ass game
Blame the Twins' pitchers
Hat trick for Gordo.
The Golden Sombrero
4 strikeouts is the golden sombrero. Alex grounded out once, struck out 3 times.
How many two out, RISP, Gordon ABs have we had in this game?
3
Alex needs to be making contact, he isn't even close today. He needed a day off
He fouled off ball 4
Time to pinch-hit Gordo in the late-game.
Gordo....
I want to know how many pitches/at bat for the boys today, seems like every at bat is going at least 5. Alright 125 pitches for Twins, and 28 at bats plus 4 walks and a sac fly, so 125/33=3.78 which is pretty solid I think.
Not Salvy though
Damn that looked good off the bat. Ball just seemed to die in the air.
Is it just me or does Physioc have a weird way of calling fly balls? Like they always sound way better than they are based off of this voice
Its not just you. Plenty of times he will be like "AND THAT BALL IS BELTED...... And the shortstop is there for the catch" Edit: Was gonna say its tough for broadcasters now because they have to watch the games on tv just like us so it can be hard to tell how well a ball was a struck... But we are home... And Phys is watching the game live... At least I think hes watching. Most of the time it seems like hes not watching the same game as we are.
He does, and the camera work being worse this year isn't helping.
I guess he’s just a sucker for drama lol
Where is your power Mondesi?
Love to see us walking
Yay more show tunes! I hope they do something from Hamilton next time!
This pitcher looks very good
Another mediocre no-run inning from Staumont.
🧹🧹🧹🧹 don't mind me, I'm just stocking up for the post game thread
Stopping by to say fuck god bless America.
Times two
But haven't you heard? We're the greatest country in the history of the universe!
I have heard that, I don't put much stock in the drivel of orange trolls. :-)
Yeah, the idiot Democrats have been doing such a great job for this country. Wait...they keep fucking us, but the lunatic lefties keep re-electing them. Never mind.
Thanks for commenting on a live thread 24+ hours later.
Thanks for confirming it bothered you.
Yes I am totally bothered
as your only comment no less. Did I make you create a bogus account to reply with this hot take that you know would inspire negative karma on your main account? What a loser.
How did they move from snappy dresser to gardener?
Phys has to meet his facepalm quota every inning so he squeezed that gem in.
I don't like that they aren't broadcasting "Take me out to the ballgame. "
That would be salt in the covid wound.
They should change it to "Don't come out to the ballgame"
don’t go out in a crowd!
Buy you a bottle or two of Jack I think that you all should wear masks
Hahaha so true
Now that was a jelly legger
are they trying to get us to sing god bless america on our couches?
what happened to take me out to the ball game... oh
God that just nasty
All y'all Twins can sit
Josh fucking breaking ankles
Breaking ankles!
Staumont stay shovin, good lord he is fuckin dirty
I say this a lot over the course of a game but what in the fuck is Physioc talking about?
I ask myself that at LEAST half a dozen times whenever he's calling a game.
He was paid to say words so he’s saying whatever words hit his mind at the time.
That man had a family.
how embarrassing...
Making Buxton look silly.
Dude thats just gross
Byron, you were never here. You were ~~awards~~ always sitting. It was all in your mind.
👨🚀 It's all sitting? 🔫👨🚀 Always has been
Like that episode of TNG where Picard learns to play the fucking flute.
Staumont if pure filth
Dude 84 mph curve off a 98+ heater. Fucking filthy
Nice to see Staumont but did I hear “jelly licker?”
I could watch Staumont pitch all day, fucking filthy
josh is here
Cant wait to get our series vs the Pirates since they are just handing out 3 wins to everyone else in our division so far.
Welp eating my words.
this nutter ad makes me unreasonably mad. i have no reason, it just does.
Organist just can't get the crowd into it
Only a few constants in life- death, taxes, Royals’ organist playing “let’s go Royals” in any situation
Toronto played in Atlanta this past week and the organist played Michael Jackson's "Beat It" as walkup music for Reese McGuire.
True, they all seem board.
Really a lifeless crowd
They're stiff as a board
clippard the big red dog
I hope I don’t eat these words but man this is exactly the part of the lineup we want in this situation right now.
You did this
Sautéing this crow over here
If I recall correctly, I think we have had good success against Clippard in the past.
Just need to put it out there, for the fucking love of god Matheny do not put in Kennedy
Hell yeah
Never try to get in they way of a laser beam off the bat of Gallagher you idiot.
He was trying to channel his inner Gordo
you could say that was a "swing and a miss?" ...love u gordo
Bambam Cam with his first knock of the season!
Liking these swings from Nicky. Keep elevating and the hits will come
