Wild Card Game One: Blue Jays (Gausman) vs Twins (Lopez): 10/3/23, 3:38pm

[Aggies7]

Someone is going to have to tank one here. Not seeing us string a bunch of hits together 

[Aggies7]

Stadium has gotten really quiet hasn’t it 

[Aggies7]

Ok positive thoughts LFG clean inning 

[PDX Twin]

Offense has disappeared. Bullpen to the rescue?

[NeverSeenATwinsPlayoffWin]

The Twins got MAT for a pitcher not in the Royals' top 30 and a swingman who posted a 6.88 ERA in AAA this year (also unranked in their system). 

That's not a trade that will constantly be talked about on broadcasts as a fleece, but I don't want to know where the Twins would be without him.

One strikeout this inning will change that. Momentum due to the umps has shifted but one good play or pitch and they’re back

Maybe they'll start falling.  Somehow they only have six strikeouts. Somehow. 

[CoastiePilot08]

Offense needs to wake up and on 

[CoastiePilot08]

Don’t like thielbar here 

[CoastiePilot08]

Crowd needs to bring the energy back

I would have liked to see Varland stay in

[MGX]

In our half of the inning, if we get someone on in front of Royce it will get loud.

 

[Cris E]

Maybe a quick and quiet inning can jumpstart the offense.

[MABB1959]

The Twins went 7-3 in their last 10 games and Lewis is back.  Don't want to get overly optimistic but feeling good.  Hope they don't let us down.

They're all waiting in line for the bathrooms, but they all need to use the stalls. Need to be serving Pepto Bismol in the concessions.

[Aggies7]

ALRIGHT LETS HIT COME ON

[rwilfong86]

Woohoo, 6 outs away now

[Blyleven2011]

Six outs to go ....

[nicksaviking]

Awesome freakin' inning. 

Edit; Half inning.

[Beast]

Great inning, Thielbar!  Get some insurance runs here.

I’ve got pepto and gas x at hand 

[MABB1959]

The stadium is a bit quiet but they are probably trying not to get too excited and then a big let down

[Mike Sixel]

Three Fangraphs writers chose the Twins to win it all? That's the third highest total!

[mrtwinsfan]

2 more runs here

[CRF]

Even if CC doesn't get a hit the entire series...and I sure hope he does...his D is gonna save us runs. Probably every game too. 

[Aggies7]

Good to have vlad Jr up with nobody on next inning too. We’re allowed to score more runs I think

I have a triple IPA. Not sure it's working though.
