Game Thread: Twins @ Brewers, 7/27/22, 1:10PM CDT (11:10AM PDT)

[Aggies7]

Incomprehensible now we bash around such good starters and not the bad ones

[stocker08]

Did not expect to see the team bounce back like this.  Very nice.

"Three consecutive hits in a row."  Like, there's some other way to do them in a row?

It's redundant and also needlessly repetitive.

[RickOShea]

Brewers feeling confident.  It's just a matter of time.  Our bullpen can't hold water.  and that's not including what Archer will be allowed to cough up.

[PopRiveter]

I love watching Luis work a long at-bat like that. Even though it ended with a whiff.

[stringer bell]

Sánchez with the “”steal”. 
 

“Do you believe in miracles?”

[PDX Twin]

Wow. What is the probability of this combination coming up on Gameday? 

[umterp23]

surprised batter interface on throw wasn't called

I hope the Twins completely annihilate the Brewers' pitching today.

I recommend for those watching on Youtube to switch to the Twins radio audio under settings. The video and audio is linked perfectly.

He never touched the catcher til after the throw, no interference is the correct call

[umterp23]

Archer it's on you now to keep us in it

 

[PopRiveter]

Looks like no one told the hitters that they are supposed to be afraid of Corbin Burnes

[RickOShea]

The best thing of that entire inning was Burnes' pitching count was elevated.

I’ll go with the 3 runs to tie it up

got away with it for sure, because he had stepped out of the batters box and in play, so too close for comfort.  Thrown ball was inches away from hitting helmet and/or bat. 

[RickOShea]

I wonder if counsell is carded at the hotel bar?

Thanks for calling that to our attention. That is a cool feature

With our bullpen?  You're only prolonging the obvious

[umterp23]

walking the 1st batter to start bottom half by Archer is not what you need, but come to expect in a game like this

[RickOShea]

And the end has begun.  Archer's implosion has taken root.

[USAFChief]

Just leave Archer in Milwaukee. 

[RickOShea]

Walk, wild pitch, yep.

[ashbury]

And this is why I'm not a fan of amateur hour in CF. 

[adorduan]

Archer sucks today...?

Would you rather be 3 runs down

[umterp23]

Gordon didn't set himself for a good throwing position.  Had plenty of time to square up and crow hop into the throw.  Like Gordon and his multi-positions but he didn't give himself a chance 

[RickOShea]

Gordon has no clue in cf.  He had time to get in position to properly catch and throw.  Instead he comes in at an angle and eliminates the possbility.   Unbelievable.  should have just posted the run and save the effort.

That shift was terrible. It should have been a double play ball.

How can you trust the pitcher to do his part when the team shifts ? Mr. Rocco until you can determine what Archer has today ? Seems you are inviting trouble , Just walked the previous batter and it was obvious the batter and all of us could see that, Not a big fan of shifting as much as we do with the Pitching staff we have, , FRUSTRATING
