Twins (Lopez) vs Rangers (Mahle): 8/18/24, 1:35pm

[Parfigliano]

Contact play for TC=out at plate

[mrtwinsfan]

stupid challenge

[TwinsCD]

Oh yeah, Larnach not allowed to hit against lefties.  Another solid choice.

[IndyTwinsFan]

We're waaay too predictable with the use of the contact play.  Texas knew that was coming as well as we did.

AARGH.

Like the sun rising in the east, you can bet the Twins will get thrown out on the damn contact play.

You called that correctly!

Lopez would have been pulled in either the 1st or 2nd if that was the case...

Lopez was escaping with zeros. If he gave up two or three or five runs on a handful of pitches  I'd have yanked him too.

Especially when the opposing team basically knows it's coming, like this situation. 

[TwinsCD]

Brilliant.  And now if we make the 11th, guess who the runner is?  Slowpoke Vazquez.

[USAFChief]

Miranda fail.

Maybe he won't have the contact play on?

We don't score on Vazquez's K either, if they don't run the contact play.

Not liking Duran's velocity today....

[Tlaker]

Bad loss

He shouldn’t even be pitching today. Thanks, Alcala.

[TwinsCD]

Pathetic loss.  Nice work, Rocco.  Nice work, bats.

[Aggies7]

That really sucks. Bad.

[Parfigliano]

Bad bad bad loss

[USAFChief]

Well ****

[HopelessRomanticTwinsFan]

twins r gonna twin🫣

[Danchat]

Rough loss, but winning 3 out of 4 is pretty dang good. Just pull Alcala earlier and it's likely a sweep.

[jaimedude]

Lousy throw by Miranda, plus he had a crappy at bat in 10th.
