Miggy!!!  GOOD NIGHT

[Darius]

Sano just keeps making the multitude of doubters look terrible.

[nicksaviking]

Yeah, if the Twins don’t get to be happy about their new reliever, nobody gets to!

[Blake]

Wow.

 

WINNER!

Remember this feeling, Miguel. Chase it in training.

 

This is the Miguel we want to see!

[Aggies7]

Acuna deeked me

[ashbury]

Wow. Just wow. Excellent game, even with the rocky moments.

[David HK]

 

That couldn't have been scripted any better.

 

The kid does the job getting on base, Miguel makes it Sa-noooooo!

[IndianaTwin]

FROSTY THE SANO MAN!!!!!!

 

Thumpety, thump, thump, thumpety, thump, thump, look at Frosty go!!!!!!!

[nmcowboy]

 

Hmmmmm...I think I'd bat Cron here but we'll see how this works out.

Umm, I think it worked out ok.

 

[Blake]

 

SANO!!! 48 isn't big enough FONT!!!

Obligatory:

Sano: “and if I can change and you can change..”

 

Edit: he sounds more like drago. “I FIGHT FOR ME”

Love how the first thing he talks about in the postgame interview is "working hard with Rudy."

[ashbury]

Kudos to Mr Arraez for keeping the inning alive.

[IndyTwinsFan]

Miguel, I wonder what he’s looking to do here? Hit a gap? Poke one the other way?

Turns out it was a game-winning Bomba!

[operation mindcrime]

That one aged almost as well as my being comfortable with Duffey in a high leverage situation.

 

However, your's turned out a little better than mine.

 

[IndianaTwin]

Incredible we haven’t had a walkoff homer.....yet

You were saying?

[TwinsCD]

 

Kudos to Mr Arraez for keeping the inning alive.

 

Kid is gonna be a freakin star and he's the perfect complement to our homer-happy offense.  

[VATwinsFan]

Good job by May.

[wabene]

Yo baby!!!!

[MNT1996]

I'm ****ing loving this Sano redemption arc

Having trouble getting the ball out of the infield, all of the sudden.

Right up until that last at bat.

Acuna deeked me

Me too. I saw him come in like it was a pop-up and I was thinking "he had to have hit it more than that."

Sano all the way. Sano has been pretty good at the plate lately.

[twinssporto]

Such a dangerous lineup. Can't wait for Buxton to get back. Yankees, we're coming right at you. Better be ready.

[Blake]

 

Me too. I saw him come in like it was a pop-up and I was thinking "he had to have hit it more than that." 

make that 3 of us.

[Riverbrian]

 

Wow. Just wow. Excellent game, even with the rocky moments.

 

Two good teams... Toe to Toe. 

 

It is possible to enjoy a game without hating a single moment.
