Twins (Woods Richardson) vs Giants (Birdsong): 7/13/24, 6:15pm

[Aggies7]

Go slower after it max 

[Linus]

What was Max doing?

[mrtwinsfan]

Phew !

[tony&rodney]

The game is in Duran's hand now. The big man need show.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Let's grab an insurance run or two...

[Joe Schmitt]

I'm not generally a bunting person, but two on, no one out, up one in the 9th, this is a time to bunt.

[Aggies7]

Ugh Vazquez, anyone else scores 

[Joe Schmitt]

I guess a single works too . . . please gods, no more bad bases loaded play here.

[TwinsCD]

Productive 2 outs.

[IndianaTwin]

I'll gladly trade two outs for a run. 

[Aggies7]

Why were their middle infielders plying so far back

[RpR]

Another double play RBI, it happens.

[RpR]

Wally had best not K here - oh well.

[Joe Schmitt]

Agree with that math - 2 outs for a run.  Duran, please don't make us look foolish.  Pretty please.

[TwinsCD]

Frickin called 3rd strikes.  What are they teaching these guys these days?

[jimbo92107]

Dang, Wallner... No Hall of Fame player would stand there and take a pitch that close. That was a very hittable pitcher. 

[IndianaTwin]

Tonight's my Golden Anniversary. 

In the big scheme of things, the Tigers beating the Royals 8-2 on July 13, 1974, had no real impact on the standings, and there were no particularly noteworthy individual performances.

But I was sitting at Royal Stadium in Section 119, Row JJ, Seat 4, taking in my first-ever Major League Baseball game, so it was a game of epic proportions.  

[Joe Schmitt]

102 mph.  that doesn't seem like diminished velocity to me.

[Joe Schmitt]

103 now.

[UpstateNewYorker]

And 104.

[NotAboutWinning]

A win is a win! Let's take the series tomorrow!!

[TwinsCD]

Patchwork lineup somehow comes through and the bullpen locks it down.  Well done, everyone!

[IndianaTwin]

How 'bout that convincing lineup? 

[mrtwinsfan]

wow what a win ,  crazy

[Joe Schmitt]

Seven pitches at 102 or better.  If Duran has his mojo back, that is going to change the complexion of the Twins bullpen for the better.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Big time win, boys. Duran looking nasty.

[Patzky]

Solid, despite and with an asterisk.
