Holy cow............

[FlauerPauer]

Unbelievable.

[Aggies7]

absolute muppets

[mrtwinsfan]

Loaded for Trout = hold on

[wsnydes]

There's some really bizarre base running by the Angels going on this series.

[bighat]

Trout up with the bases jacked. Whole kittn' kaboodle on the line. No bases open and any base hit likely ties it.

[Brock Beauchamp]

AAAAAAARRRRRRTGGGGGHHHHHHHH

[D. Hocking]

To be fair, its not like anyone felt that there was any need for bullpen help/upgrades in the off-season...

[VATwinsFan]

 

You realize that if we don't get outs soon Trout and Ohtani will get to hit again...

Guess they didn't hear you.

[John Kelsey]

Wow we have to bring the best player of the past 20 years up in a pressure spot.....and he's followed by Mike Trout!!

[ScrapTheNickname]

The Twins need to hire a Drama Coach for these situations.

[Mill1634]

You have GOT to be kidding me. 

[wsnydes]

{shakes head in disgust}

[Aggies7]

BeSt TeAM in BaSeBAlL

[bighat]

Oh my goodness. This is a complete meltdown of epic proportions. And it's not even over yet.

[VATwinsFan]

Can't make it up.

[Vanimal46]

You've got to be kidding me.

[Don Walcott]

 

Not sure if we should blame the FO for keeping Hildenberger here or Baldelli for pitching him with "only" a 4 run lead..... 

Yes

[Brock Beauchamp]

Someone just shoot me.

[FlauerPauer]

This is why baseball teams have had closer's for the last 40 years.

[operation mindcrime]

BWAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Mill1634]

There almost has to be a roster move after this game to get some sort of fresh bullpen arm up here for the four game series. 

[ScrapTheNickname]

No problem. We've got this.

[mrtwinsfan]

Rocco -all on you starting with Hildeberger

[VATwinsFan]

Bring in Rogers?

[scottz]

Where's Duffey when you need him, am I right?

[bighat]

Nobody warming up. No mound visits left either. I have a feeling they're going to just throw fastballs down the middle to Ohtani and hope he misses 'em.

[USAFChief]

Not sure if we should blame the FO for keeping Hildenberger here or Baldelli for pitching him with "only" a 4 run lead.....

every reliever will pitch meaningful innings. There is no place to hide poor relievers.

 

This isn't on Baldelli.

[Jkeady12]

Chalk it up to the manager. Trying to be too much a players guy, need to think about how to win not just how to get players confidence back, not in the ninth inning.

[John Kelsey]

Is Rogers completely unavailable?
