Astros vs Twins, Game 1, 9/28 1pm Central

Did you know the Twins have lost 16 in a row in the post-season? They've only mentioned it twice on the broadcast, unless I lost track, so you may have missed this nugget.

solid at bat by Jeffers.  My limited posts I have said he isn't afraid of working the count.  many 2 strike at bats, and almost all his hits have come with 2 strikes.  Plate presence is phenomenal.  I like him back there.  He is going to be good for long time

[mrtwinsfan]

only wanna see- May- duffey- alcala- and then the 9th ??

[Krabby5]

Well...you knew if they finally break this losing streak, it would definitely not be by a blowout.  It never works that way.

[T_J]

Anyone know how to watch on mobile? I think this is the first time I've turned on ABC in a decade now. I wanna sit outside and chain smoke while I bit my nails.

[Vanimal46]

May is honestly who I want to see warming up. He can go multiple innings if need be.

[TFRazor]

Don't walk Maldonado. Make him beat you.

 

Edit: Thank you

[Aggies7]

Big first out

You mean twice each right? It's a three man booth today.

[stringer bell]

Both teams laying off the pitches out of the zone, and yes, it is tight.

MLB Network hit their quota discussing it earlier this morning as well.

Good luck seeing Alcala.

no one else is even close, takes a good number of playoff appearances to accomplish that

Alcala isn't on the roster.

That's a silver lining I suppose...

[stringer bell]

Pretty well hit by Springer. The wind must be blowing in.

To be fair, I think about it quite often myself. 

[TFRazor]

Have to be honest, didn't see Maeda getting through 5.

 

Mainly because I'm listening to the radio broadcast.

[Aggies7]

Twins will enter the 6th inning with a lead in a postseason game for the first time since 10/6/10

[LVTwinsfan]

Good outing from a struggling Maeda, I wouldn’t mind seeing him come out and at least start the 6th

[Vanimal46]

EXCELLENT inning from Maeda. If that’s the last we see of him today, bravo sir!

[USAFChief]

Out for the 6th?

 

4 or 5 runs here would make the decision a little easier.

[Shaitan]

Commentator: "Altuve is guessing this year." 

 

Everyone else: I wonder what is different about the 2020 Astros.

[SF Twins Fan]

Great inning there. Can they send him back out to start the 6th?

[stringer bell]

Good inning for Maeda. If the Twins don't score, do they send him out for the sixth?

[USAFChief]

 

Twins will enter the 6th inning with a lead in a postseason game for the first time since 10/6/10

hush, you.

*cringes*

[mrtwinsfan]

Same plan as the 5th , give Kenta the 6th - 1 batter at a time, looks like when he got out of the 4th it Pumped him up ? looked good in the 5th

Just a wee bit different without a buzzer strapped on him, eh?

[LVTwinsfan]

That's a silver lining I suppose...

for instance, it would take the Mariners 100 years to do that
