GAME THREAD: 8/3/20 Minnesota Twins VS Pittsburgh Pirates, 7:10 CDT

I agree 100%. I was watching at a buddies house for the early part of the game and while I was getting pissed that they couldn't do anything against Holland, I turned to him, maybe in the fifth inning, and was said the Twins are going to get going and win this game. Couldn't say that for a loonnnnggg time.

They won't win every time it starts out bad like that. They won't hold every lead either. It's baseball.

 

But I've been holding back on being confident in this team, and tonight's game went a long way toward convincing me. They buckled down and did what they had to do to get a win they should get. Good job.

Cleveland lost to the Reds. Looks like the Sox are going to pick up the W in Milwaukee.

Hey, it's August. It's OK to scoreboard watch.

How's that wild lefty

In Pittsburgh's MLB pen?

Feels like we stole one.

Of course not. That's unrealistic, but this just felt like a game that they were going to come back and win.
