GAME THREAD 9/25/20 Twins vs. Reds 7:10 CDT.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Uphill again. Facing a 2-1 deficit after a 2 run dinger that Buxton didn't quite make it to...

 

Not as much uphill these days as earlier in the season.

 

Testing our mettle.

[insagt1]

2-1 Reds. Twins fanning too much tonite and leaving men on base. Bux with 2 real bad AB's. Sano and Garver ...about normal. Cruz still has to get some good swings. Berrios has this happen to him a lot. One pitch can bury him when his mates aren't giving him run support.

 

Sano is now reminding me of Chris Davis. Davis can't hit the beach with sand. He needs to start making contact again....anywhere.

Let’s get it back

[USAFChief]

Buxton catches that.

Buxton catches that.

moustakas homer?

[operation mindcrime]

This Lorenzen guy is weird looking! He looks like one of those guys in the woods from the movie Deliverance!

[LVTwinsfan]

If the Indians lose tonight they cannot get 1st place

[USAFChief]

"Looks like a line drive in the box score" said everyone, everywhere

[USAFChief]

Garver goes yard here.

 

Edit: so close

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Polanco with the infield hit.

C'mon Gonzalez. Make it not matter.

[stringer bell]

Nice Garver!

[Nine of twelve]

The Reds aren't shifting the 3B. They know better than to go for a fielding advantage with one out at the expense of allowing a big lead by the runner at third.

[USAFChief]

Godawful AB, Marwin.

[LVTwinsfan]

SMH

[stringer bell]

Reds messed up the relay. Polanco could have scored, now Gonzalez and Kepler can't get it done.

[LVTwinsfan]

Rays win

[sampleSizeOfOne]

There will be other innings.

yeah but you can’t anticipate that

[USAFChief]

Uffda.

[LVTwinsfan]

Thanks for the story Marney... you happy now

[insagt1]

Twins with some butt ugly AB's with runners on base tonite. Again, too many k's. Is this going to be one of those nights?

[LVTwinsfan]

Berrios is toast

[stringer bell]

Call me a perfectionist, but I don't think the lineup is "long enough" with Sanó and Gonzalez near the Mendoza line, and if Donaldson can't play even more so. Garver hit another ball hard, but his Ks have been excessive. 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Does anyone know a joke?

[LVTwinsfan]

Berrios with another low quality start

[LVTwinsfan]

Does anyone know a joke?

Jose Berrios

Rays win

Twins now can not be #1 seed.

[operation mindcrime]

Berrios is toast

With chipped beef and cream sauce!

[insagt1]

and this game has gotten away from us. Reds getting key hits; Twins are striking out.

Berrios was good initially, but its time to get him out of there.
