Game Thread: TWINS at Yankees -- September 19, 2017 7pm ET (ESPN National Broadcast)

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

He's been getting squeezed but he also walked a .147 hitter on 4 pitches and threw Gardner 4 hittable 0-2 pitches on which he badly missed spots.

Hey max

"Badly" is debatable.

 

I think Berrios just wanted the batters to put it in play and go sit down.

This ump is squeezing the heck out of Berrios here. Ump star-struck in NYC?

When you're not coming close to your spots, you're going to get squeezed.

I don't blame him, the bottom half innings have been marathons

Mauer with a chance to break the all-time record for home runs in a season.... and he grounds out.

What record? I'm not watching the twins broadcast

[amjgt]

That might be a single at TF (if played properly off the wall)

 

This stadium is a joke.

That ball would've been gone in every park (except MAYBE San Fran)

[Aggies7]

Now there's a good breaking ball

[gil4]

 

This homerun counter is really annoying.

Fortunately, it looks like it will be over soon. Unless (God forbid) they decide to use it the rest of the year because each additional HR is a new record. (I hope I didn't give them any ideas.)

[Aggies7]

Hanger

Now there's a good breaking ball

And there's one that's not so good.

[amjgt]

These ESPN guys are such Yankees cheerleaders.

 

Thought I might get check out a neutral crew. No such luck

[snepp]

 

 

Drink!

[bighat]

Berrios really flying open and missing that outside edge almost every time, sheesh. C'mon kid, throw strikes.

Rick Sutcliffe is terrible regardless of who's playing.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Change up here

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Called it; Headley got a piece and fouled it

 

Come on Jose

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

These foul balls, inning after inning, really are deflating

[TwinsCD]

This is the most infuriating thing about playing against the Yankees -- they just won't swing and miss at strike 3.  Foul it off, foul it off, foul it off.

 

EDIT:  Until now.

[Aggies7]

John flaherty keeps saying Bear E OS and I want to punch him

Well.... technically.... it was a foul tip

[Aggies7]

Boy do we ever need a breakout inning

[TwinsCD]

I wish someone would break that god-forsaken whistle that they play over the Yankee Stadium PA whenever there's a PA.

[snepp]

F U Frasier.

[Aggies7]

That was extra bases. Man.

[wsnydes]

Wow...what a put out that was.

[Aggies7]

I am simply floored that Eddie swings at that first pitch. No worry that Jose has been laboring

, just swing away

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Escobar 2-9 off Sabathia coming in; has not looked tonight. Lessons learned.

Agree completely

[Aggies7]

Agree completely

The mental part of his game is reallllly lacking at times

[Aggies7]

I think you have to start someone stretching if you're paul M
