One would think 6-1, 9th inning is sort of the correct time for Sands to be in a game.

I respectfully disagree. The best time for Sands to come into a game, is when we're getting waxed and down 10-1.

Duran got the save out of that

It will carry over. It did for the Twins against the Dodgers. It will.

It would if the Twins think like losers. Which they are not

It's how the Royals will be thinking. Simeon be ready!

A blessed Memorial Day to all.

Thank you to all who have given the last full measure in defense of all of us.

Lots of weak contact against Duran (even Melendez was hit by an 88 MPH curve) - nothing made it out of the infield grass. Not to worried about him other than he had to be brought into the game and throw 15 pitches, so he and Jax are probably not available tomorrow.

 Simeon be ready!-   Terrible matchup for the way he gets results,  lets hope he can get thru 4-5 innings, 

[Robert Floren]

Too much drama at last inning thanks to two soft groundballs better than bunts but Twins Win.  That's what matters.

Good game guys!

Take some aspirin. I hear that’s what you are supposed to do if you suspect a stroke

A wins a win I guess.  Blizzard tastes the same.

Depends on the flavor … some are better than others, doesn’t taste the same, but still tasty enough 🙂😋

Staumont would love to get the keys.

I don’t know … here he was brought in to close it out … he had to get one out … and allowed 4 to score. That’s not great, imo, but he did finally get it done. Yeah, I get that Sands put us there, and most of it was on him, but … Duran has had some bumps. I’m not worried, but I’m also not without thought about it. It wasn’t a good outing, imo

Unsung hero, Carlos Correa cutting off AK throw to home. Think it was headed for no man's land.

Wonder why Ryan doesnt throw at least one pitch every game against KC if TC never loses against them when he pitches.

Be a fun psychological experiment.

The Will Smith effect!
