Gameday Thread 9-1-18 Vs the misguided Buccos

Made my first trip to STP for last night and tonight's game... Had a blast. Even caught a Starling Marte foul ball... Now my kid won't even let me touch it. Lol

Great venue. Really great fan experience. Easy to get into and out of for us. I had a blast.

We sat behind a lot of Charlie Culbersons people tonight I’m fairly sure.
 
Sorry I couldn't predict doom and gloom for you guys live during the game. I plan on being here today.

What did the HR and double by Swanson look like? What pitch were they on?
 
Think Swanson ambushed the first pitch. Taken as a whole, BTW, this was one of the most nerve-wracking wins of the year. Talking heads agreed. Kinda feel like we need to give the Nancies a pass on this one.
 
Didn't Bobby use Glavine as a pinch hitter a couple of times?

It used to be a fairly common practice to have athletic pitchers pinch-run (again, I'm old). I can't remember if Bobby did it, but I believe Teheran has pinch-ran during his career. I was referencing Gabe Kapler's decision to have Velazquez pinch-run the other night only to have Velazquez make the last out of the game on the ruling that he left second base too early when tagging up on a fly ball.

His double was a rocket that ate the SS or 3B up and Swanson hustled for a double when it went to the OF.
