Hinch outsmarted himself on that one - no question. I can accept that but at least take the bunt sign off when he is clearly lost on the first attempt and give him half a chance to hit.

Maybe he is still out on the plate appearance, but the bunt was obviously a bad decision on 0-1 after the first pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ties stink but it's the better alternative Imagine the field day traditional fans would have with this idea! 💀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Twins really struggling with PFP today! Also, as much as I hate the whole sliding-into-first-base idea, this was a situation in which it actually made sense to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) Wood-Rich threw a 93 mph middle-middle FB to almost every hitter that inning and not one barreled it up - all fouled off. Edited April 13 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith's basic approach at the plate is already better than Torks...Colby at least looks like he knows what he's doing and looking for, whereas Tork looks like he's stuck with a fart in an elevator. Maybe it wont be by the end of April, but at some point this season, Keith will be hitting ahead of Tork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
