    Pineda's given them some pitches to hit that they've either popped up, looked at, or fouled off. Frustrating.

    eta: so naturally Tucker singles on a pitcher's pitch the very next one

    between Sano and Astudillo, the Twins May have the most robust lineup

    ETA: and add Pineda. Was he always that fluffy?

    Astudillo's nickname Tortuga always reminds me of this scene

    Hard to do when you're leading off the inning.

    *except when you're playing Manfred Ghostrunner Ball
