[SwainZag]

Need a big K here Taylor

[bighat]

Can’t score three runs off kyle gibson,to be fair

Agree. This is Rogers' fault but Kyle Gibson should have been lit up.

Jesus. Rogers is broken. Hell of a play by Simmons.

[FlauerPauer]

Night, folks.

[h2oface]

Tell them to play better defense too

[MNT1996]

@Twins hey you! play better defense 

[flpmagikat]

I feel ya, simba lol

They did just play pretty good defense. Simmons saved the lead 

[h2oface]

And Donaldson doesn't get an error. He gloved it and took his eye off it.... that is an error.

[cHawk]

@Twins hey you! play better defense

This game wouldn’t be tied if Donaldson didn’t bobble that

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What i miss?

[cHawk]

STRIKE HIM OUT FFS

[MNT1996]

True, but it's two games in a row Rogers has been shaky, and he's suppose to be a high leverage guy

[cHawk]

I was referring to Donaldson

[ashbury]

Have we had a pitcher throw more than 100 pitches?

Colome, a couple of times.

 

[Aggies7]

None of our relievers seem to have a put away pitch. I’m not an analytics guy, but I don’t think that’s great 

[cHawk]

Rally time

[SwainZag]

Let's walk off these guys, it's about time the bats wake up.

[LVTwinsfan]

Ok let’s get one

[Cap'n Piranha]

It's a problem when your lefty "closer" gives up homers to lefties in back to back games.

[ashbury]

Retire the first batter instead of the homer, and they probably weather the storm without even a run scoring.

That is true. The blame goes around

[Danchat]

Dang, it took until Rogers hung a curveball right down the middle until he could get Solak out. Good ABs from these Rangers hitters, and Rogers just isn't getting enough whiffs.

[cHawk]

It's a problem when your lefty "closer" gives up homers to lefties in back to back games.

That is concerning. I mean they weren’t bad pitches but...oof

[ashbury]

OK Byron, be the MVP. Again tonight.

Have we had a pitcher throw more than 100 pitches?

I don’t think so. Our ace threw 95 on Sunday...without making it to the 7th inning.
