He was.

Huh? He pitched in yesterday's game and barely made it out of there, not to mention he's been going in multi-inning saves lately. He's certainly not fresh and rested.

[Darius]

Then what do the Yankees play?

Well, considering they’ve won more games with a tougher schedule, less bad baseball.

 

I’m not sure why would anyone would argue against blowing a 6 run lead in 3 innings, then walking the 9 hitter with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th followed by a grooved fastball to a RH batter, being bad baseball, but to each his own I guess.

[Aggies7]

Well done Twins. You proved you belong on this stage. How well do I remember us getting our butts whipped every single game against these guys. We're not afraid of the Yankees anymore. Good game!

I can’t tell if you’re serious or not. The only pitchers to show any balls were the new guys and Duffey surprisingly

[Mill1634]

This ump is literally guessing

[Vanimal46]

[SwainZag]

Screw it!  Toss um all!  

[jz7233]

 

exactly how i feel about Hand right now.

Hand at least didn't walk any batter and only gave up a solo. Rogers is going to lose the game.

Sorry about the soiling. I posted that before Hickey went yard.

No worries. Plenty of wet wipes in our household.

[Aggies7]

Running out of coaches

[TribeAZ13]

 

Chapman is in. Game is pretty much over...

no way... I love when chapman faces the tribe.. he gets shook if he doesnt have command and then u sit fastball....  U guys are very much alive

[MNT1996]

At least the Indians lost

[Mill1634]

Ehire with the rare 5 ball walk!

[nicksaviking]

That might have been a strike. Ump sure it didn’t bounce into the zone?

[TribeAZ13]

I called this (no jinx)...when chapman doesnt have his command, he is a certain BS....good game!

[Aggies7]

I’m not gonna bash Rogers, yeah he walked a nobody and threw a meatball, but if the management of the club got off their *** and made a move slightly more impactful than Cody Allen, he wouldn’t have had to been used so much. He’s overused and because the divisional lead is almost gone, he can’t possibly be rested because THERES NO ONE ELSE TO USE

[DiscGolfer]

Garver coming up, gonna be big

I am serious! We are playing the best team in Baseball, (by far), toe to toe. That says an awful lot.

Boy, I don't want to even ask what that makes the Orioles then

The market is "weird" right now according to falvey...lol

[snotboogie]

Is it really 11:25?

Fully agreed on that. We desperately need another lefty as well as another 9th inning arm.

They’re not the best team in baseball. Close but they’re not. Our pitchers stink against the Mets too. We play to competition level it seems

[Aggies7]

Dude this HP umpire is shook right now

[snepp]

LET'S GO TWINS!

 

*dum-dum, dum-dum-dum*

[Aggies7]

Don’t hurt me again.

If these guys are not the greatest team in baseball I think I will now hide under the bed. Because I would hate to find out who is better than this wrecking machine!

[Mill1634]

Have to SAC bunt Kepler here, and then Polanco comes up clutch! Come on baby!

[MNT1996]

This gives me 2009 Game 163 vibes. Wow.

[SwainZag]

Let's go Kepler :clap clap: :clap clap clap:

[Blake]

I'm starting to believe the pitching staff on both sides is afraid to throw strikes because strikes seem to be going a long way.
