It’s no laughing matter especially when you realize that if the twins manage to back their win into the playoffs, as of now they would be the first round opponent

I'm OK with that.

How long have you been hearing these voices?

For far too long.  I need a clock that doesn't talk back to me.

You mean Buxton hit a HR with a runner on base?  Shocking!!

[USAFChief]

I remember as a kid my brother and I fought a lot. One time my mom asked me why I had kicked my brother in the stomach.

"It was an accident, mom," I said. "I didn't see him turn around!"

[jkcarew]

Buxton’s 4 PA tonight would have had slightly more value on Sunday. And that was totally predictable.

[USAFChief]

Seattle just picked the Yankee ghost runner off 2nd in the top of the 10th.

Heh.

Nice to see someone else run the based like little leaguers 

[RickOShea]

Were the Twins allowed to enter Dodger stadium through the visitor's entrance or did they have to buy tickets?

[Winston Smith]

Buxton and Correa get tomorrow off?

Oh that was Castillo starting that game. Would be a shame for Seattle not to get him any runs and lose.

Hang your head, Pagan.

However, we need to keep in mind that he's a young pitcher still very early in his career.  He may well get better as his career progresses.

The sad part is that he's about the best starter we have right now, with an incomplete for Tyler Mahle at this point.

They need to use the Correa money after the opt out this off-season on a relatively high end starter. Ryan ain't the guy yet.

Believe it or not the 11th and 12th inning base running by the Yankees is even worse...

Hahahaha. 3 straight innings the Yankees lose the ghost runner. 

Unbelievable.

Cant wait.  Going to tomorrows game too.  Hopefully a win if a loss not a humiliating beatdown like tonight

 Even Frank Viola struggled his first couple seasons.  Let's give the kid some more time to develop.

Naturally, Rocco has Ryan throw a career high 110 pitches in a game he is getting lit up in. If he'd have been throwing a one hitter he'd have been gone after 80.

 

Can we switch that around please and let pitchers pitch longer when they're doing well and pulling them earlier when they don't have it?
