1-0 Astros after one.
McCullers struggled with control and left the bases loaded in the first. Bregman with the game's only hit so far.
-
Buxton doubles and goes to third on WP with nobody out. LMJ proceeds to strike out the side.
1-0 after 2.
Strikeouts may be fascist, but they’re damn useful.

Bregman makes that play normally on Buxton's double. Hopefully Lance is really settling in, which is hard when it's freezing.

1-0 Astros after 3 innings.
-
Astro bats remain silent.
-
And, man-o-man, is McCullers getting squeezed.

Squeezed? I just saw 13 straight pitches, none of them even close to being a strike.
-
It's 2-1 Twins, btw, on two 4-pitch walks, a seeing eye single to the right side and a roller that Bregman dove for and knocked away from Correa...another walk loads the bases with one out...
-
McCullers is a train wreck this inning.
-

No, he is not. This is pathetic.
-
But it's cold... Whatever.
Keuchel, IMO, is our #5 pitcher. I almost feel like McHugh is saying I'm coming and Keuchel doesn't seem to worry about it.
-
Bases clearing triple...5-1 Twins...
Gotta get him out of their, coach.
-
6-1 Twins...
C'mon Hinch, put us out of our misery
-
Shit, he is just throwing crap now.
-
8-1 Twins.
-
That Kraut can mash.
-
Well, that escalated quickly.
-
Finally...McCullers out.
-
I did not expect an 8 run inning here.
-
That was the worst half inning since the '15 playoffs against KC.
-
So I guess the Twins can score 8 runs in an inning too.
It was more fun when we did it.
-
The Astros look bamboozled.
-
Guess I'm glad I'm not watching this game.
-
Well, we knew eventually the offense was going to have to score more than 2 or 3 runs to win a game. Where would we be if we didn’t have this rotation? It is time for these hitters to get to hitting. Spring training is over and we are 2 weeks in. Can’t wait to see Yuli in the the lineup Friday!! Hopefully he can provide a spark.

Don’t look now but the Astros have 5 straight hits and plated 3 to take the score to 8-4
-
2 weeks in and we're only 9-3. Shucks.
-
Make that 6 straight hits, 8-5 now
-
Alright...a little life in the lumber...let's throw up a zero here, and get back at 'em!
-
Bregman! 8-6
-
Bregman solo dinger gets 'em within 2 top 6.
-
I'm behind, but God bless Devo!
-
Finally...McCullers out.
Why did that take so fucking long? After Rosario would have been nice.
-
Cmon davis, put us ahead!
-
A knock here would be nice. Anything that can drop in where they ain't.
-
Wow! But foul.
-
Marwin strikes out with bases loaded on three pitches, the first was a long, long foul ball
-
Dangit.
-
Springer full count, F7. Ends bases loaded threat.
-
Fuuuck.
-
What happened to George’s go the other way approach from the WS?
-
Good bullpen stuff today.
-
Bregman first 4 hit game
-
Altuve F9
-
Correa pops up to Dozier
-
How the hell did Springer miss the hanging slider and the 3-2 fastball? He is under everything.
-
Reddick pops up to Dozier. Astros LOBster fest today.
-
Bot 8. Peacock in. Dozier K. Mauer grounds to Davis, Peacock covering. Rosario F7. To the 9th we go.
-
One last chance to vaunt.
-
Rodney in. Let’s straighten his cap.
-
Gattis singles past diving 1st baseman to right.
-
Stassi. 1 on, no out, strikes out looking. 1 away.
-
Davis singles to left center. Runners 1st and 2nd. 1 out.
-
I feel like you are just teasing me Jo. You better pull off a win.
-
C'mon Marwin!
-
Marwin, representing the go ahead run, 3-2 count, walks to load the bases.
-
Another chance for George. He needs this.
-
Well that worked.
-
I think Rodney's head is crooked and his hat is on straight.
-
Springer gets it done without getting it done!

Holy shit
-
Springer beats dp, 2 runs in! Tied!
-
The Twins defense is doing what it can to give this game away.
-
Wow! The Twins got greedy trying to get two and it costs them.
-
Bregman, let’s make it a 5 hit game! Springer on 2nd, F7. But Astros tie. 8-8 going to bot 9
-
Is Peacock back out?
-

I’m tryin’!
-

Well, a 2-base throwing error ties the game. Springer is still in a putrid funk.

Yes

Yes.

Is he trying to pull everything?
-
We finally used our amazing double play ability for good, not evil.
-

Yes
-

He’s like a baby giraffe learning to walk. His swing is a wreck. Not trying to pull, just trying to make contact. That’s a huge struggle
Right now.
-
Peacock facing Morrison. K
-

Not the last time but most of the time.
-
Kalas once again loses track of the inning. Either that or he doesn’t know what “extra innings” means.
-
Are we sure that Peacock doesn't have telekinesis? How does the ball move like that?
-

He took a shot at the shift. RBI on FC, second score on error.
-
Escobar 0-3 w a walk today. Into the shift, Altuve throws him out. 2 away
-

Right. Just saying if Dozier doesn’t throw the ball away, this game is over. Springer didn’t exactly sting that ball.
-
Game over
9-8 Twins.
-
Kepler up. 3-2 count. Homer to right. 9-8 Twins. Final
-
Damn Kraut.
-
Well, fuck.

Son of bitch

So many chances today. Good news is the bats cane alive a bit. Bad news is McCullers looked like shit. Hopefully it was just one of them games. Get home and right the ship.
-
At least there was some actual vaunting.
-
Schweinhund! I piss on your grandmother's grave!
-

Yeah, but Marwin and Springer have to snap out of it. Need those guys.
-
Well shitfuck. I really thought they were gonna come back and win this one. Now I’m depressed.

No doubt. Yuli back Friday too, I heard.

Me, too. And I have to do taxes tonight. Ugh!

terrible slider

Same. I feel like I've been halfassing at work for no reason now

He threw the same pitch the pitch before, and Kepler was right on it, fouling it straight back into the catcher. Didn't miss the second one.

Yes, I knew that the rushed throw ended up in the dugout, allowing the tying run to score, but I acknowledge my crappy pbp skills. I was also just excited they tied the game. Damn shame they didn’t win.
