Colome with the opportunity to give up a 3 run homer and blow the game in style.

Why do the fans know this is coming, but the Manager can't ever figure it out?

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Tie game.

 

Just makes it more exciting, or something.

As the announcer said, this is when the Twins pitching usually fall apart and the way Baldelli uses the BP , I have my fears.

As I said earlier.

What, exactly, should the manager have done there differently? Pitch someone not on the roster?

[h2oface]

Why did I enjoy seeing that foul ball into the umpires mask? 

Karma screaming at him.

It's not as if he has a plethora of good options.

"btw, I am done with you" ?

Just can't help yourself?

That is rationalizing.

At that walks, which Twins pitchers give plenty of, may kill the Twins again ,

I contend Colome is never a good option and should have been gone long ago. Any option is a better option than Colome at this point. It tantamount to torture to make us watch this guy pitch for us, even if he does have a successful outing.

[Aggies7]

Colome throws one pitch and he does it average at best. Judge does one thing very well, hit big homers. Magoo saw that one coming

One run is hardly unraveling, especially at Yankee Stadium.

Really?

[h2oface]

Umpires calling balls and strikes ALWAYS affects the outcome of the game. Always. No matter how overdue, soon we will take them out of the equation, and finally let the players, batters and pitchers, have a fair consistent Strike Zone.

Rocco actually got tossed for arguing balls and strikes just before the homer...

[wsnydes]

Just now, RpR said:

Really?

Yup.  One run is not unraveling.  5 can be though.  

[Aggies7]

the entire state of minnesota should lose their pro sports teams. and throw the goofers in for good measure.

I'm not rationalizing anything. What is Baldelli supposed to do, conjure 1976 Rollie Fingers while sitting in the visitors' clubhouse?

You mean the ball 4 that was actually strike 3and should have ended the inning

[RpR]

Arraez looks like a cartoon character when he bats; maybe that throws off the pitchers.

[LVTwinsfan]

Arraez can hit

[h2oface]

BUXTON! Time to be a hero!

Twins pitchers have plenty of O-2 scenarios they screw-up this one is not the rule.

[gunnarthor]

Would be nice to see another Buxton home run

[Aggies7]

corey said the yankees won 30 straight season series against the A's way back in the day, so it can still get worse ?

[RpR]

A simple solid hit would be nice.

Something to strive for!  Everyone needs goals!

Bremer always says here at Target Field. PLAY THE PART DICK, you’re at Yankee Stadium
