Mike Pelfrey struck out the side
including Miggy Cabrera
what?
It's. CoC's pennies.
dog's asses and the sun, and broken watches and such.
love the outfield assist.
never mind me.
24 OF assists in a season is a lot
I remember Ward had a gun. Where's liidership on that list (he asks knowingly)?
Torii's highest OF assist total was 15 back in 2011 as a RFer for LAAAAAA
His highest CF Twins total is 14 in 2001.
Speculation here, but I'd imagine many of the best OF arms assist totals fall off pretty rapidly as scouting reports circulate. Gentleman's bet here. Rosario's OF assists go down in the coming years as word spreads about his prowess. Conversely, some noodle arms often pad their stats because everybody runs on them.
I'd thought that, too, but some of these teams have faced Rosario before. I think plenty of these baserunners run scouting reports be damned. Sorta like sliding into first
Mmm hmm. Barfield was still getting 15+ assists after 5-7 years in the league. His arm was well known.

the forming of a theory or conjecture without firm evidence.
with this?
Eh. I didn't disprove your theory by cherry picking one example.
I'm with you and the chilling effect is pretty damned valuable, too.
Nice catch by Hicks.
Of Pelfrey's 9 outs, 5 have been by strikeout.
what?
Jermy Boyd.
Twins batters getting hits would be nice.
Pelkfrey's season strikeout high is 7.
Fan on the field delay. dumb
This is Sano's 71st game. He has the 3rd highest walk total on the team.
How much of that do you think is attributable to pitchers worrying about strikes catching too much of the plate?
Probably some.
Some of it comes from the umpires giving Sano a generous zone.
True. You'll also get that when you display the plate discipline he has.
Even with that, it's still pretty impressive for a guy that young to get that veteran treatment.
Yup
Tigers Baseball!!!!
TWINS BASEBALL!!
I hope folks don't mind me using this non-facetiously.
That was odd
BUT YAY TRIPLE
Maybe, anyway. Still pretty sexy.
Yup.
I thought a piece of the wall broke, but it was some kids glove falling off his hand.
Me too ... like an analog scoreboard number or something.
LOLOLOLOL
Rosario scored on a 110 foot fly ball.
And dazzle is pissed about it.
Because thats not the proper way to play baseball?
Not so much that as that the Tigers were playing dumb baseball.
Well, if McCann fields the short hop, he is out by like 6 feet.
"Sacrifice" fly
MIN 4 1 0
DET 0 3 2
Frickin weird game, man, this baseball.
As if the Big Pelf strikeouts weren't weird enough.
How hum, another OF assist, another triple
All right Mike Pelfrey, your job here is not to pitch to score.
He tried his best, but made it through the inning.
Pelf wriggled harder than a fresh leech on a fish hook there.
Ooh, Nice imagery.

We all realize that Greinke can opt out of his contract after this year, right?
/leaves room
Time for the Blaine Boyer Experience.
It was a better experience than I expected.
MIN 4 1 0
DET 1 7 2
If Joe doesn't get on base today, I blame that sac bunt.
Too bad Mike Pelfrey is not to in strike out Miggy,
This escalated slowly.
🙁
Yup
Cripes
If I was superstitious, I'd take the blame for this. As I'm not, you'll have to find another whipping boy.
(I vote hj.)
Don't we usually vote for nibbish?
Well, sure. We'll round up all the usual suspects.

I expected The Usual Suspects poster with some shooping magic
You expect too much...
what, we aren't entitled to free art?
Time for a Dozier HR
C'mon
JoeSanoIt's a good thing someone filled the Tigers' gloves with pudding.
Could go for Adobe Pauer here
Damn autocorrect.
Damn lack of hits
Would have been nice if Detroit could have shared some of theirs.
Oooooooof
this one hurts.
WOooooof
FTFY
Well this is no good at all.
Alright, we can blame Perkins and call it a night,
Done.
Yup, I think it's time for the whiskey.
If I find out he's still pitching hurt I'm going to be really pissed
Nothing he threw looked particularly nasty so I think it's entirely a possibility.
He has 6 strikeouts in his last 4 1/3 innings pitched over his last 4 outings, so it hasn't hurt his K rate. Could be just rust from time off and not being able to go on a rehab assignment.
We're going to need to score some more runs without hits like we've done so far if we want this...
Well ii is due up, so the no hits thing is definitely a possibility.
Well I'd say that qualifies as a bad loss.
Houston loses, still 1 1/2 back, but now 1 game back of Angels.
