1-0, Chart

But his velocity seemed to be down but the movement was there. He benefited from a wide strike zone against lefties I felt. He located the FB well in the outside ‘corner’ against them, down in the zone. Nice sink to his pitches overall.

Felix still threw too many fastballs… even in 0-2 counts and pressure situations… but the Twins’ offense kind of sucks and Felix is awesome, so he got away with it. When he missed with fastballs, it was rarely down the middle. He missed the glove pretty often with the off-speed stuff too, grooving some sliders, or hitting the low-inside corner instead of the low-outside corner… but no one made him pay.

Also Batista was warming up in the 8th, and then yielded to Morrow when it looked like Felix would finish the 8th and we would see a save opportunity. When the M’s tacked on 2 insurance runs, it was Batista time again. And he looked pretty sharp in the 9th. So… praise Felix all you want… but the same lineup looked feeble against Batista too.

That’s the best homestand of the year, definitely. I’m setting my sights on Baltimore, Cleveland, and Tampa Bay

I…I have no words…

Wooooo!

See you at the finish line. :-)

I don’t know what is up with the Nats, but the Rangers had awful uniforms.

If not, you’d probably love them.
