Late to the Twins game because of the llama costume contest (of course) but fully expect the Twins to score at least 10 runs now based on how the last two games went. I hadn't been paying much attention to the team but started tuning in again with this series . . .

In the same sense that Jacob Frey is the longtime and beloved mayor of Minneapolis, and Edina is a longtime and beloved hockey powerhouse, sure

I think someone on the Field of Dreams broadcast just referred to the Pohlads as "beloved" owners of the Twins. 😂

I appreciate someone trying to sort this out. I will say it's really great that it's possible to watch both the Lynx and Saints for free and that legally streaming a full season of Twins games (or most of them) costs $100 (or less if you snap up a deal). Glad some games are on broadcast TV.

Justin's talking about Joe again. I really haven't been keeping track this year (and haven't had as many games on as usual).

If the Twins are going to bring back dance parties (this was discussed earlier on the broadcast), I'm going to bring this back (my post is from 2015).

Twins game is also on FOX 9 locally. So everyone can watch a weird game with an all-analyst booth with an analyst stationed at each foul pole why not.

Kind of amused to learn that a certain local columnist who sometimes pissed me off with his Joe Mauer takes retired on my birthday.

Can't believe I hadn't done this yet. (Alt text in the previous post has links where you can get that Abolish Ice logo on t-shirts and stickers BTW. Design is by Harebrained.)
the same graphic as the previous post but instead of MN Sports it says Win! Twins! like the original logo this is based on did.

I swear on Bluesky I'm doing more sports posting from my main account. But posts like this are more aimed at very casual fans I guess (or even non-fans) so they have some idea what people are on about when talking sports here. Links in alt-text to details on that Abolish ICE Twins logo. <3

Dodgers Pride Night is June 5 against the Angels, and they are putting up a permanent display in the centerfield plaza at Dodger Stadium honoring Glenn Burke and Billy Bean
This year, the Dodgers will be installing a tribute to LGBTQ+ trailblazers Billy Bean and Glenn Burke, who both played for L.A. and were among the first professional athletes to identify as gay. The permanent display will be housed in the Centerfield plaza and feature pictures and memorabilia from their careers and text explaining the duo’s contributions to Major League Baseball and professional sports.

I looked at half a dozen or more other teams of the 22 that offer their own streaming and none of them were having a half price deal now/yet. But the Twins . . . well.

I don't think baseball should be played in the rain. Might be why rain delays and rainouts exist, who can say?

Oh hi Mitch Garver (who is with the Mariners these days). Also hi Justin (back in the booth for this homestand I guess). (Guess who just remembered to turn on the Twins game.) (Though I think it's bad to play in the rain.)

I may find Byron Buxton diving catches and catches where he slams up against walls very stressful. I'm always conflicted like "YAY" but also "PLEASE BE OKAY" because oof.

I'd missed the news that Anthony Recker was going to be on Twins broadcasts. Huh. (It was funny I tuned in earlier and Cory talked so long without anyone talking I had no idea if anyone else was there until Denard finally said something.) (Not a knock against Denard.)

Went looking for some old posts on the other place and was reminded of the post I had pinned for years which reminded me of that time I learned about a Joe Mauer dinger because @haydena51.bsky.social reposted it. Good times.
Post from May 23, 2016 on the other place from wintwins: "Most Mauer dingers don't clear the fence by much because he doesn't want to show off or anything weird. #MinnesotanMauer"

Cory Provus asked Glen Perkins what he'd get Joe Mauer for his birthday and that led to this exchange: Perk: "I sent him a nice text." Cory: "Did he respond?" Perk "Not yet. He will. He's better at responding to texts than you are." Now they're bickering about texting response times.
