Sweet, may setting up for the homer.....

[Tom Froemming]

Ay ay ay.

[Aggies7]

Lead off walk. Don’t do this to me today

[jud6312]

Don't worry guys, Trevor's out here doing Trevor things.

[h2oface]

May and Harper. Not a pair to go with. What happened to the pitching guru? Is he taking long naps?

Boy oh boy oh boy oh boy

[mickeymental]

 

The finger in the dyke holds....still think the Twins are going to need more runs to win this one.

in the old days they called that a dutch boy.

[FLTwinsGuy]

This is almost comical at this point

[bighat]

Please Trevor, not today buddy. Not today. If the Twins ever needed a scoreless inning, it's right now man.

[jud6312]

Trevor May might be the second best bullpen arm this team has. Let that sink in.

[Jham]

Controversial take: Trevor May has never been good. *there was a 2 month stretch in summer 2017 where he was actually good.

[tvagle]

Did you see that throw from Kepler?

 

Proves my earlier posted theory...Kepler throws worm burners from CF but has a cannon from RF

[Aggies7]

Once the offense slowed down (yes they have 5 runs today but have missed so many chances for weeks), it was only a matter of time before the pitching did us in

[glunn]

We need a new reliever after this batter.

He's never been that. Parker is better and maybe Harper as well. May is a fringe bullpen guy on most MLB teams and should be used as such. Unfortunately the Twins treat this 30 year-old with a 4.69 career ERA like he's got All-Star potential. Looks like this lead will be blown unfortunately.

 

Bring on the Yankees.

[John Kelsey]

Twins have left 24 men on base through six innings. 

[Aggies7]

98 MPH cheese

That's even more terrifying.

[MNT1996]

Nice flop

[FLTwinsGuy]

Lol cant make it up...

[jud6312]

Why do I subject myself to this on a regular basis?

[Aggies7]

Another free base. Comical

[h2oface]

Castro the golve man.

 

The recent homers have come off the curve. He can't control it. Why use it? Because Trevor says, in his interviews, he likes his stuff.....

I'm to the point where I'd like to see Berrios tweeting about the Twins only getting cash for DJ Heybeef.

I bet the Yankees are shaking in their boots boarding the plane for MN

[jud6312]

 

Castro the golve man.

Yeah, but had it bounced higher he would've framed the crap out of it.

[ashbury]

Nice flop

My thought too. Give him the charging call he wants, Blue, but don't give him any extra leeway on balls and strikes.

[bighat]

Luckily for this lifelong Twins fan, I've got some things to do that will take me away from the game/Internet for the rest of the day. Hope the Twins somehow pull this one off, can't say I feel too good about it. Hang in there everyone.

[Aggies7]

Wow if not for that wild pitch that would have been unreal

[FLTwinsGuy]

Hell of a job by may to only give up 1..Probably shouldnt have even given up that
