How about we pinch hit for Chad here....I know wishful thinking.

 

Note: the Twins only have 2 catchers on their roster, and yet they DH Mauer when he needs a day off behind the plate.

I'm not a big fan of this lineup because if we do get runners on vs. a guy with a nasty breaking pitch, there's a good chance both Hall and Jenkins will K.

 

Of course Moeller probably will as well, but that doesn't change based on the pitcher.

I realize this is 20/20 hindsight, but would anyone have considered a bunt by Hall there with no outs and Fielder on 2nd?

Its probably going to take a HR to win this one, since both teams have proved they're completely inept at getting runs in the conventional way....and of course Dunn has to lead off the bottom of the 7th.

Still wouldn't have gotten the run across with two K's behind him.

 

And I'd have a tough time telling Hall to bunt regardless.
