It's truly incredible how un-clutch Correa is. Your MLB GBDP leader!

[Blyleven2011]

Another double play by Correa  , oft-dah 

[USAFChief]

I'm shocked. Correa bounces into a DP

 

[OvertheHill]

Clutch

[IndyTwinsFan]

Runner in scoring position and less than 2 outs.  And we again found a way to not score. 

Big surprise there.  NOT!

[RickOShea]

Oh heck, let's clean the entire house.  The Mets may want to trade for Correa.  Correa has already agreed to play for them. Dump Gallo, Kepper, Taylor, and a few others.  Bring up the guys from St Paul and let's have a 7 week run to the finish line.

[USAFChief]

At least we haven't burned through the pen.

[MABB1959]

Wow!   No way you can accept the crap!

Sarcasm aside, I'm not.

Fun fact.  Entering this game in 92 games OAK has a run differential of -248.

248÷92= 2.695 runs a game.  This concludes the math portion of tonights comments.

Falvey and Levine seem to have found a way.

The Twins offense against the A's pitching has me thinking this game only ends if we send out Willie Castro to pitch until it's win lose or draw

[Puckmen]

I usually can catch just the last few innings of Twins games due to work and the time difference (live in CA). Watching the whole game tonight because they are playing the A's in Oakland. Didn't appreciate how painful it is to watch this team come to the plate for the whole game...so many unproductive at bats, even against the A's pitching. Yikes.

[OvertheHill]

Jax just keeps chugging along. Thankful for that. Too bad he can’t hit. 

[RickOShea]

Alright, now play this like having a ghost runner in extra innings.  A little small ball, please/

[Parfigliano]

Donnie "double barrel" Solano

[jkcarew]

That’s it!! Give Buxton a 42” bat! Why didn’t anyone think of this earlier!?

[Parfigliano]

Broken record but dont like these M hats.

or the heads under them.

[OvertheHill]

You could pull people from the stands and get better DH at bats these days. 

[USAFChief]

Shocked. Shocked Buxton Ks there

 

[glunn]

Buxton looked terrible on that last pitch.  

[glunn]

Gallo!

[Brock Beauchamp]

I’ve never been this irritated to see the Twins take a lead in the ninth inning. 

[USAFChief]

Happy Gallo gets the go-ahead dinger. 

Sad it'll buy him another 100 PAs.

[ashbury]

GALLO!!!!

Me.  I'd put Julien there daily.

[glunn]

I wonder if there is any contender who might take Correa (and his contract) for a low level prospect.

I know what you’re thinking….

January news conference that we’ve resigned Gallo.
