Astros @ Twins, June 13, 2021

B8:

Gordon, pinch hitting for Donaldson, flies out F9 on a nice running catch by Tucker.

B8:

Cruz homers to LF

He had a stretch earlier in the season where he played very poorly in the field.

My impression was that his confidence was low. He’s definitely been playing better defense for several weeks now.

Nice play by Altuve.

His arm is what it is but the more he plays hopefully he’ll pick up better jumps, reads and routes. A lot of room for improvement there.

B8:

Refsnyder lines up up the middle, almost takes Garza’s head off, but Altuve there in the shift to make a nice play

13-3 Astros

He’s improving, yes. But I still feel he’s the worst everyday center fielder in the league. I realize that may be an unpopular opinion.

Twins got some good whacks in on Garza

Yes they did.

T9:

Jones grounds out 4-3

T9:

Bregman walks

The twins alternate jerseys are acceptable.

They’d look better with all blue caps though.

So every spot in the order had a hit today except the 3-hole.

T9:

McCormick doubles to LF, Bregman to 3B

Chas with another extra base hit.

Is Grienke lobbying to get a turn?

Extra point is good.

T9:

Garcia…0-2…flies out F9, Bregman scores on the sac fly

T9:

Correa grounds out 5-3

To he bottom of the 9th…Astros lead 14-3

B9:

Sano strikes out swinging

B9:

Larnach Forkbeard, the Elder…doubles off the CF wall
