Twins have the leadoff man on with a 30 foot basehit.

Guy was running in the grass down the 1st baseline. Miller didn't have an angle to throw.

Tito fired up.

Good win, great bullpen pitching. Thought this was a loss for sure. Freaking Detroit won too tho. Let's finish this thing up tomorrow with Kluber.

Allen went 1.2 yesterday...lol. I thought Plouffe got more of that. Scared for a second.

Yes he did. He pitched the whole 9th inning and then got the 1st 2 outs of the 10th but ran out of steam. McAllister came in and got the last out.

I'll be up in the Terrace Club tonite with some friends.

Hope Kluber can give us some length and give the pen a break.

I don't get it. I can't figure it out. I know school is back but 11k is pathetic.

No, but at the time of TBones post he did. Since tbone posted his yesterday.

My point was that Miller pitched 1.2 innings and was fine, whereas Allen pitched 1.2 and that was "too much"...my post was a friendly dig at Laley, that's all...moving along...

My point was they both got the same amount of outs. We don't know what would have happened if Miller needed to face another hitter. Mauer just missed a singled to center and Plouffe almost hit one off the wall and tied the game.

I just don't understand your disdain for Allen. He's been closing games for us for 3+ seasons and is damn good. He's successfully closed down 84 and has blown 14. He has a career ERA of 2.70 and career SO/9 innings of 11.6.

Guess you're not familiar with the term 'moving along'-lol. Anyway, I don't care what he's done over the last three years, and I don't harbor 'disdain' for the guy--he's a decent closer, but not an elite one. GO TRIBE!

Just saw this...Brian Shaw has thrown 17 straight scoreless innings and hasn't allowed a run 30 of his last 31 innings. 1.19 ERA since June 17.

Our bullpen as a whole is on fire.

Agreed. But I'm not relying on Armstrong or "Only can throw a fastball" McCalister in any sort of important game situation. Otero has been a great pickup.
