It was probably a 1965 WS game

[cHawk]

I’d like to introduce a new stat called “HPR”: hits per run.

Tonight, the Twins and Dodgers have combined for 4 HPR.

No, Twins have never won a WS game on the road in their 3 appearances.

[Jocko87]

This series will set pitch clock baseball back at least 3 months.

[Winston Smith]

Dick is working real hard to jinx this game.

I think he stays on 2nd.

Prolly Jax.

[RickOShea]

We'll take it!

[RickOShea]

My oh my!

[glunn]

Farmer!

[USAFChief]

Useful, that.

[h2oface]

could it be??????

[RickOShea]

Now you can bring Jax in, for the ninth....................maybe.

[Aggies7]

Not quite. They’ve only won one game against the Dodgers at what is now called Dodger Stadium. The Angels played their home games there for a couple of seasons and I’m sure the Twins won a couple against the Angels. 

[Tlaker]

Wow, just wow! Farmer!

[h2oface]

That fishing pole is really tired. Far cry from the regal robe of Cruz days.

[Schmoeman5]

With all the running Buxton has done tonight, will he need tomorrow off? Or is this what we can expect more of from here on out

[Montdak]

If they can hang on will mean the series can’t be a disaster despite the ump assisted one game disaster last night.

[glunn]

Ober, Buxton or Farmer for game MVP?

Right?!

if he can’t negotiate the 7-9 hitters without giving up more than 3 runs then what is he doing here?

[stringer bell]

It’s Jax and Sands left in the bullpen, correct?

[USAFChief]

On to the 9th

I like it better when most everyone is rested. 

Then it's Jax 'n Five.

[glunn]

Yes. Jaxinator!
