Game Thread: Twins @ Yankees, 4/24/18 @ 5:35pm CST

Close, but not quite the same pitch he struck him out on (and maybe Judge was looking for it)

[bighat]

Looks like Yankees batting practice has finally started. Surprised it took them 3 whole innings to threaten to break the game wide open.

[snepp]

That could have been much worse.

[bighat]

Way to get outta that one, Jose. The offense really really needs to start scoring runs here.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Honest to god. You'd think the Twins would have a scouting report or general idea about Sabathia by now.

[Danchat]

They laughed at Escobar being in the #4 spot, now he's the only one who can get hits.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Swing harder, Rosario. You might be able to knock the earth off its orbit.

[Aggies7]

escobar has always been a gamer. too bad most of the other guys aren't. sabathia owning us again.

[Aggies7]

what's gardner's lifetime OBP against the twins? Seriously has to be like 0.650 at least.

[h2oface]

This team still can't hit Sabathia. The offense is a real problem now.

[Mill1634]

Can we put Castro in?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Garver having a JR Murphy-esque inning

[notoriousgod71]

My God, Garver.

[kusko_andy]

great job Garver.

 

great great job. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Can we put Castro in?

please no, he is brutal

[Aggies7]

Just a banner inning for garver and we are in some big doggy doo doo

[bighat]

Garver. My goodness man. Inning should be over.

[Mill1634]

Come on. That is a perfect pitch. The umping has been horrible lately. 

[kusko_andy]

my god how is that not a strike?!!

[Aggies7]

Berrios melting down.

[bighat]

It's a 2-0 count, should be 0-2. That check swing was a strike and so was the pitch right after that.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Berrios melting down.

not even close

[Aggies7]

That’s all folks. And this was or best chance to win.

[kusko_andy]

 

Berrios melting down.

 

How so?

 

Garver is responsible for two baserunners.

[Aggies7]

How so?

 

Garver is responsible for two baserunners.

Listening on radio, dan G talking about poor body language

[bighat]

THESE PRETZELS ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!

[notoriousgod71]

At least when the bullpen comes in I can continue about my evening.

He's no Kyle Gibson, at least.

[Aggies7]

It’s so weird as a twins fan to watch (or hear about) a team that doesn’t swing outside the zone and consistently gives tough ABs

Gladden also said Grossman and Mauer are god base runners*

 

 

* yes he actually says that
