Nothing against TJ Rivera but is Terry falling in love with the him and going L/R/L/R at the expense of Kelly Johnson, a better hitter?

KJ seems to have fallen into the trap where he's been so good in the off the bench role that his manager wants to keep him there. Not so sure that's a cause and effect assumption you want to follow too far. Hey, check it out, a baserunner!!!

awful lot of bullshit calls tonite so far.

Mets hitters must be mistaking Ervin Santana for Johan Santana.

A Kevin Plawecki sighting!!
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 01:36 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
The Mets had their best chance to score in the 7th inning, as Santana suddenly couldn't locate the plate with a road map. Not surprisingly, the Mets couldn't get the hit they needed to knock him out as Conforta strikes out with the bases loaded to end the threat.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 01:39 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Reed with an efficient 1-2-3 inning in the 8th. Now lets get some runs.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 01:41 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Leadoff single by Reyes to open the inning.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 01:43 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Wild pitch. Reyes to second with no outs. Bring him home!!

The Twins TV booth is pretty good too. I forget the p-b-p man but Bert Blyleven is a hoot. He started a thing years ago where he 'circles' random fans with his tele-strator so, at home games, fans will bring signs to the game saying, 'Hey Bert, Circle Me!!, and once or twice per game he'll do just that.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2016 01:46 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
I think that pitch DID hit Cespedes but, with a 2-1 count, it's better that the AB continues.

Unfortunately, Jay Bruce did not just leave the building.

Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 01:54 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Almost on cue, Jay Brauce strikes out looking to end the inning.

Lefty Specialist Sep 18 2016 01:55 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
The 4/5 hitters on this team right now are unwatchable.

I hope they told Familia this is a save opportunity.
|
Lefty Specialist Sep 18 2016 01:57 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Kevin James is right behind home plate and he's spent the whole game looking at his phone.
|

But he's such a huge fan, he said so during the interview part earlier in the game.
|

Well, he got out of it.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 02:13 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Mauer fouled off pitches 6 times with Dozier running. Dozier was probably as relieved as I was when Mauer finally struck out.
|
Fman99 Sep 18 2016 02:15 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
Nice work to get the stubborn Mauer.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2016 02:15 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
You can't take these guys into extras at home and not beat em. Close this deal, somebody!
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 02:15 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
|
It took 11 pitches just to get Mauer for the final out.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2016 02:21 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |
||
Yes, but that also means it took him 14 just to get the first two outs and with each of the last two hitters he faced he got to 3-2 and all those extra throws after getting ahead of the hitters, which is something that been an emerging pattern with him far too often during the second half of the season. Not that I'm saying it's a critical flaw or anything, but it's a large contrast particularly when they come on the heels of the efficiency of most of Reed's innings.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2016 02:28 AM Re: IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets |

I agree with you. Familia generally gets the job done, but it often has some anxiety and drama along the way.

Don't dis Kevin James. He was doing publicity for another movie and was scheduled to take batting practice at Yankee Stadium. He was given a Yankee uni but refused to wear it.

Byron Buxton!!!!! WTF is he?

Meanwhile, the Twins retake the lead with a leadoff home run to open the 11th inning.

He fouled off numerous bad pitches and takes one down the middle.

Guy pitched Reyes tough. Kept it far enough away from him that he couldn't keep it fair, then busted him inside.

I watched the bottom of the 11th. I turned off the TV after the Reyes K. I had JUST turned the TV back on when with his next swing, Granderson wins the game. Unreal.
