Well, that was a bullshit run.... phoney call on the hit batsman... stolen base 9be nice if the M's could find a catcher with an arm) and then home on an error.... (which wouldn't have happened with White ) So TJ Walker goes 6 and gives up one unearned run.
They have one but he is injured. Should be back next homestand. Almost 40% Caught stealing last season.

My wife just saw the close up of Gerber on the mound, and asked if the Ms were signing players out of junior high. :)

Hopefully White turns his bat around. Marte had a TON of errors in DSL last year. I know the fields aren't great and the rulings can be questionable. But if his throwing was a large part of his problem, then having a vacuum over at 1B might help him stick at 3B. I know its helped JP. (Yes I saw your reply to LL DT).
Just tweeted that if White doesn't hit JP will need to improve his throwing accuracy dramatically.

You know you are getting older when there are Pro athletes that look a lot younger than you. 1st happened to me with Griffey.
