Twins (Festa) vs Red Sox (Fitts): 9/20/24, 6:10pm

[Parfigliano]

2 foulouts to 3B.  Impressive.

[OvertheHill]

Epic futility. 

[Aggies7]

So you’re telling me Jax has been available for tonight all along, but we had to use Henriquez and varland first ?

[Western SD Fan]

I can start my rum and coffee now......

[exeoud]

Just forfeit the rest of the year. I'm done with this garbage

No

Wow. Line out and two pop outs with a runner in scoring position... 1 run scored in 10 innings is a death sentence. Difficult for any pitching staff to hold an opposing team under 1 run with these overtime rules.

[jaimedude]

Just awful. I knew once Larnach was robbed, nothing else would work. Just inevitable for the Twins to fail this year. 

[NYCTK]

Wow. I can't believe he threw all of Ronny, Varland, Tonkin, and Thielbar before Jax. 

Hilarious if we're being honest. 

[mrtwinsfan]

??  anyone in the dugout  talking to these batters ,  obvious what the sox are doing and Twins are falling for it every time ,  way way -setting up inside cmon im 78 years old and i see it

[Gagnerules]

Not good at bats at all.

take the 3rd base coach and hitting coach with you.

[Patzky]

Ober could come in and pitch 7 scoreless innings in relief and they'd still lose 

[Parfigliano]

TC loss in less then 8 pitches

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Anyone still want to bring Popkins back?

[jaimedude]

I predict a sacrifice bunt.

They tried talking to Rocco but he was busy munching on his seeds and playing a computer game.

no, they need MORE hitting coaches.

[OvertheHill]

Anyone in our dugout watching this? Anyone? 

[Dave Borton]

Grab Joe Castigliano on Bosox radio while you can. His last year; 40+ yrs in the booth.

 

[insagt1]

watching this pathetic offense night in and night out makes one want to follow another sport. Twins hitters are incredibly inept and have wasted good start after good start. Nobody is picking anybody up anymore. Two pop foul outs by key hitters.....and now they are poised and ready to lose their 3rd straight extra inning low scoring game.

Ladies and gents...we would now like to welcome Seattle to the dance as Twins continue to trash their season.

[Danchat]

Nice job, just got to get one more out here...

Make me one too!

[Aggies7]

Yo that was impressive as hell from varland. Threw gas 

[insagt1]

oops...a brief reprieve as Sox run into an out at home. Twins get another chance for futility in the 11th.

[Western SD Fan]

I remember once seeing apparel sold at the Mall of America that referred to the Vikings that says: "This team makes me drink."  I feel like the Pohlad's owe us fans that shirt for the Twins.

Twins still have to score a run and get 3 outs without giving 1 up. Feels like climbing Everest.

[Danchat]

For as much crap as the relievers on this team gets, they are doing their job tonight. And a reminder that a sacrifice bunt isn't always the best option. They might have wrapped this one up with another out.

Great job Louie!  You are now in the bullpen permanently.

I prefer on the rocks. Couple drops of water also, long as you're pouring.
