[Vanimal46]

Walk off walk! Lol my goodness. 

[Tlaker]

Winner!!!!

[Jocko87]

Only appropriate way to end it.

[glunn]

Huge win. Now let's get ready for a visit from the Guardians.

[2wins87]

Wow, what a weird ending to a kind of crazy game

[jkcarew]

All's well that ends well. Boy, these teams play crazy games!

[USAFChief]

haha winnah

payback's a bitch

[Schmoeman5]

Well the Twins walked one off without putting a ball in play. Crazy a-- game

[notoriousgod71]

What a game 

[GCTF]

and there was much rejoicing.

[Parfigliano]

Tuned back in 10 minutes ago and see them win.  Nuts.

[BH67]

So both weekend games are won without removing the bat from the shoulders. Not at all surprised. Magic number 26.

3 of 4 from the Rangers.  How we got there is irrelevant. lol

[USAFChief]

Hat tip to the Twins bullpen. I give them lots of grief, today they were spectacular. 

[Mortimerkenny21]

Walk off...Texas Ranger.

[mrtwinsfan]

Oh Lord,

This game is still going?! I haven't checked for an hour and a half!

Kudos to the bullpen for giving up just 1 run over 9 innings.

Technically, zero runs over 9 innings.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

We didn't lose!

 

Go us!

I am sure I am the only one, but would any other TD readers have had Lewis bunt the 2 runners over with no outs  in the 8th?

These guys are not taught how to do it and they certainly do not practice bunting so while in theory it seems OK, in practice it isn't actually an option.

This was a great day drinking game. Glad I don't work tomorrow! 😂

Across the board, but Keuchel in particular. Comes in down 5-0 and goes five scoreless, upping his scoreless streak to 11.1 innings.

If the Beatles were in charge, he’d be Player of the Week.

Be careful here. Just remember that:

Chuck Norris does in fact use a stunt double, but only for crying scenes.

Chuck Norris doesn't flush the toilet, he scares the crap out of it.

Superman wears Chuck Norris pajamas.

Keuchel may have cemented his playoff spot. I did not see that coming.

Chuck Norris’s calendar goes from March 31 to April 2. Because no one fools Chuck Norris.

And he could probably go tomorrow...lest they're worried he loses some velocity 😀

In the eyes of a Ranger, the unsuspecting stranger, had better know the truth of balls from strikes…
