Just started watching.  See they brought their bats.

Should have got home sooner.  My bad.

[insagt1]

and Twins fans are gasping for air as Luplow hits a 2 run pinch dinger. Get Scherzer out of there and craziness happens.

[GusGus11]

Luplow hahaha

[Aggies7]

Ryan at 74 pitches. Must have the 7th

[stringer bell]

We own the right field corner. 

[insagt1]

gotta hope Ryan can go as long as possible. Don't trust the pen.

OK--another Twin 'favorite' hits a HR. there is no accounting for this game.

Luplow and Vasquez? I'll bet Bochy is kicking himself

Why the hell would bochy take scherzer out?

Rocco going to try to one up him by taking Ryan out for absolutely no reason and testing fate with the bullpen.

He f-ing should be.

[mrtwinsfan]

Buety of BBall

Correa lol

Guy doesnt even bother working the count now

That is really bad.   The little things can make a huge difference. 

[stringer bell]

The second guess on pulling Ryan will be epic if/when the BP gives up the lead. 

[USAFChief]

Luplow and Vazquez with clutch oppo dingers.

As expected.

[insagt1]

and Rocco could be messing this whole game up by taking Ryan out. Both managers must be smoking the same stuff tonite.

Jax---maybe its time for me to switch to the O's game!

[mrtwinsfan]

With all the rightys on the Bench,    Luplow would of been my last choice,   Rocco pushing the right button  on that move

[Aggies7]

WHY is Joe Ryan not pitching right now

[Vanimal46]

Admittedly, 2023 has been the most difficult year of my life so far professionally. Any advice from the crowd who’s experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows?

[GusGus11]

Even if this works out

THis is yet another awful decision from Rocco

Ryan was dealing and you already let him face their 1-3 for a 3rd time so you cant even use that BS excuse of 3rd time through.

[Aggies7]

Even if this works out, I hate the move. 

[SwainZag]

Luplow just earned his season paycheck

That five pitch sixth was pretty taxing.

[NotAboutWinning]

Good to see Jax back to form!

[SwainZag]

I'm not watching this game..... but is it unreasonably hot in Texas?  Mad Max out after 88 pitches is nuts.    Ryan being lifted after 74  makes me wonder.

[Parfigliano]

Lotta teams wont pay $33 mil for D.  Dummies.

[mrtwinsfan]
