The Fifth Batboy (Brewers Series Recap, 7/20-7/21)
Back together to recap the Minnesota Twins' two-game series loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, David and Dan lament the many mistakes of Rocco Baldelli as the Twins stumble out of the All-Star break. While there certainly were some positives, such as the pitching of Pablo Lopez and the home run heroics of Byron Buxton and Carlos Santana, there were many reasons to wonder what might have been: What if the Twins bunted in Game 1? What if they could have gotten one clutch hit in Game 2? What if Rocco just left the lineup alone instead of pinching all the time? These are the questions the boys dive into, among many others. They discuss Joe Mauer's induction into the MLB Hall of Fame, they argue about the value of playing six games against the Brewers instead of the current four, and then they look toward the next series against the NL's best team. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
