Yep but 2 went over the fence 

[Aggies7]

Good grief the offense has gone comatose

Stewart or Jax in the 8th?

Not sure I want to see Jax in this game at all. 

[MABB1959]

Julian and Polanco need to find a way to get on base for Lewis!

Stewart would be my guess (and hope).

I’m sure I don’t. Duran will be enough of a mental rollercoaster 

[Azviking101]

Farmer in to crush the lefty and then move to third base.

If it's both, it's bad news.

Ya, this works out for the defense for sure. 

[MABB1959]

Is Buxton allowed in the dug-out?

[Azviking101]

After Varland getting driven to the track you had to remove him.

Pagan, Stewart or Jax in the 8th

I'm guessing even if it's one inning at a time, Maeda can only go once this series.

But if they think he can manage two outings, I'd go right to him.

He’s in the dugout. They’ve showed him.

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

Dingers and good pitching win games in October. I have been reliably informed that the Twins have hit 2 homers and have only given up 1 ER in 7 IP. That's a good recipe for success.

[Aggies7]

Jays bullpen has been unreal. Unfortunately

Yes

[cHawk]

Someone not named Royce Lewis will need to get on base.

Out BP only needs six more outs vs one run, so they only have to be semi-real.

[CoastiePilot08]

This pitcher is annoying

How so?

Good.  He still is our Twins favorites at heart.  

[Aggies7]

Polanco having just a miserable game 

[CoastiePilot08]

Come on Polanco. Dammit. 

[Mike Sixel]

It has not been Polanco's best game....

[PDX Twin]

With two strikes, you have to swing and anything that doesn't hit you because it might be called a strike.

[cHawk]

Stop swinging at Ball 4.
