That 1-0 pitch to judge, can’t believe it wasn’t clobbered 

Can't keep him quiet forever.. but came close.

 

[wabene]

Gil acting like a chump as he walks off the mound, smash that guy

[Aggies7]

We can go toe to toe with any team but this one, every year. It should be studied by sports psychologists 

[Aggies7]

Is ober just afraid to pitch inside or what? 

[OvertheHill]

No way Vazquez was in the catchers box there. Plus he gave it away too soon. 

[h2oface]

That looked pretty weird. Judge pats Lewis on the back..... and grabs his balls. Then he pats him on the back again..... and grabs his balls..... twice. I guess these guys just don't even know they are grabbing their balls anymore.

Man, baseball is a game of inches.  Both scoring plays were literally inches from being an out and a foul ball.

[mrtwinsfan]

Every  Yank right handed bat  knows Bailey will only stay outside , they know it , i know it , and Ober dont throw hard enough for them to worry ,  about any pitch inside,   its crazy , Attack !!

It helps when your pitcher doesn’t completely refuse to pitch to the inside part of the plate

Outside outside outside..... high middle...... and middle middle.

He is lucky that they didn't swing at about 5 of them. Meat. He won't say they were mistakes, though. Only mistakes if they swing and drill it out. Yeah, right.

A lot of people really like ober but man, gotta do it against the big boys at some point.

[Aggies7]

Royce with a great eye considering the circumstances 

[OvertheHill]

I’m already tired of hearing about the Yankees getting “generous calls”. 

[Aggies7]

Thank god we never had this guy in our system or this game would really hurt lol

I wish we could get sounds of the games without announcers.

iirc the early ‘condensed games’ from the 2015-2016 era showed the plays of the game without announcers or commentary, just 100% natural sound. With just animated graphic to let you know what inning you were going into. And those game replays showed like 80-90% of the total plays during the game, all of the hits, runs and odds plays, and even most of the routine putouts. 

For the baseball purists out there, it was glorious. 

[mnfireman]

Didn't see that coming....especially against the Yankees

[TwinsCD]

I wonder what it's like to make a call at a base and then have to announce to the world that the call is overturned.

WHAT A PLAY BY LEWIS

[h2oface]

I hope @RpR saw that play by Lewis. DEFENSE! 😇

[Aggies7]

Nice inning 

[Aggies7]

Buxton gets himself jammed on a 2-0 pitch. Yankees don’t do that, usually 

[OvertheHill]

Just a weird looking 2-0 swing there from Buxton 

[Patzky]

Gil doesn't seem comfortable pitching to Castro, second time either 

[Patzky]

That's our Vashki

What he is paid for, expected, not special.

[Doctor Gast]

Great play by Lewis & Miranda

[Aggies7]

Getting way ahead of myself, the twins will have to do what’s in their best interest to avoid playing the Yankees in the postseason. Just terrible matchups all around. Thankfully it appears the Yankees will get one of the two first round byes. Winning the central would be the best way to avoid facing New York until the LCS. Maybe someone else could know them off. Who, I don’t know. Baltimore better not throw a wrench in to things and win the division
