Playoff Game Thread: Twins @ New York 6:07 PM CDT 10/4/2019

Love the Sano shot... still despise the little league stadium though.

[Riverbrian]

 

Ditto. Duffey's time is already invested, get maximum payoff.

 

I'm usually Mr. Hand them the ball guy during the regular season. 

 

At playoff time... It's... I want him with the ball and not him. 

[Blake]

 

Taking full advantage of Yankee Stadium. If the Twins played all their home games in this stadium, they’d set the all-time record for homers.

Uh, they already did this year.

[Bomba2026]

Hey Costas Kirby is rolling in his grave at your disrespect!

[Riverbrian]

 

I'm almost always listening to music. 

 

Me to... My psychiatrist hasn't found out why yet. 

[twinsnorth49]

 

We would have hit 400 if this were our home field.

 

That ball doesn't even reach the warning track at Target, lol. 

[wsnydes]

Me to... My psychiatrist hasn't found out why yet.

The voices in my head are just musically inclined.

[AlwaysinModeration]

Uh, they already did this year.

What!?! They did?!?

[twinsnorth49]

 

I find it funny how the Twins have taken advantage of the short RF wall and the Yankees haven't so far. 

 

If only the Yankees could move the LF foul pole a few feet to the left...

 

Let's check back tomorrow...……...wouldn't put it past them. 

[Don Walcott]

That ball doesn't even reach the warning track at Target, lol.

Basically, every ball off the wall in right is a home run in NY.

[mrtwinsfan]

CRON D.P.  SEEN ALL I WANT OF THAT, anti jinx

[AlwaysinModeration]

Ottavino: check

Kahnle: check

 

They probably don’t have anyone left in their bullpen now.

[Don Walcott]

You’re due, CJ!

[Blake]

The announcers are going on and on about Yankee injuries, never mind one of the best in the game, Buxton, has been on the shelf for half the year.

 

Not to mention the other injuries that have plagued the Twins.

 

Along with Pineada getting suspended for PED's.

 

Good grief, just put on the Yankee equipment and let everyone know where you guys stand.

[Riverbrian]

 

The voices in my head are just musically inclined.

 

I know... When they tell you to paint the house brown and orange with purple polka dots while hitting High C. 

 

It's hard to keep yourself away from Sherwin-Williams.

Concur, even if I'm not sure what you just said.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I know the announcers are just playing to the NYC major market viewers, but man is this hard to listen to.

 

Very hard. It’s pretty embarrassing, really.

[Crackedfungo]

It was tough. But an above average 3B makes that play. Maybe even an average 3B. We don't have one.

 

You clearly never played 3rd (or baseball). That is a 1 in 4 ball. Particularly when you are shading inside and it’s smoked with a higher hop.

[jimbo92107]

Gotta love how national announcers have no idea who the Twins are. They called him "Cano," and didn't understand how a fly ball from this 275 pound behemoth just seemed to keep going and going...

[Blake]

 

Me to... My psychiatrist hasn't found out why yet. 

Ear worm time!

 

[howeda7]

 

You stay with Duffey. You gotta hang zeroes and see if the Twins can bang one out. 

He's way over 20 pitches already though.

[Blake]

That's wrong?

[Riverbrian]

He can rest in the off season. 

 

 

[operation mindcrime]

I'm almost always listening to music. So much more enjoyable.

Listen to some Death Metal! \m/

To be fair, they don't know who Byron Buxton is. 

[Vanimal46]

They clearly did their homework on one team tonight...

[USAFChief]

i doubt Duffey comes back out.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Costas: “If the Washington Generals can push this series to four games, will the Yankees use an opener in game four?”

[ashbury]

He's way over 20 pitches already though.

Something to consider, but at this time of the year, go with whether he's hitting his spots. Take him out mid-inning if he stops.

[USAFChief]

 

He can rest in the off season. 

There's a lot of series left.
