Twins at Astros, August 5, 2021

Maldonado has played 1B before. He’s a good glove. He will be fine there.

Is it still okay to bitch about Dusty ad infinitum?

Yes, especially after he put Maldonado as lead-off.

Astros get a 1-out single from McCormick, but strand him.

No score after one.

The shift taketh.

With Maldonado at first and Framber falling off the mound to third on his follow through, surely at some point the Twins push a bunt to the first base side right? I mean just for kicks and giggles if nothing else.

Couple of 1-out singles for the Twins…2 on, one out…

And the shift eliminates a double-play ball. Instead, it’s a single and a run.

Shiftfuck grounder to 2B makes it 1-0 Twins

Double…fourth straight hit makes it 2-0…Twins at 2B and 3B

Framber is leaving his curveball over the heart of the plate and getting hurt.

3-0 Twins

4-0

Five hits in the inning so far.

Offense has to get to work.

Inning finally ends. But Bad Framber. 4-0 Twins.

If Dusty had bet on the Twins would this lineup oook any different?

This game has already pissed me the hell off. I don’t want to hear about any damn jet lag. We owe this team some pay back and the Twins have already folded up their tents and are playing for next year. QUIT PLAYING DOWN TO YOUR OPPONENTS, WAKE THE FUCK UP, AND TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS!!

Blame Framber. He forgot how to locate his pitches in the second inning.
