I wonder what France was looking for 

Wallner spot in the lineup so he felt obligated.

[Patzky]

Ump getting testy here.

Even if you believe in the bats, wouldn't it make more sense to have Duran come out in the ninth in a tie game?

Color me Rocco. Thought this was the ninth 🤣

[Danchat]

It looks like Jax and Duran were used early to take on Tampa's #1-5 hitters.

[Patzky]

Oooh nice pitch for the punch out

Topa or Duran for ninth?

[Patzky]

Mangilum is having a  game.

My fear is that they are going to roll out Varland or Stewart and set themselves up for failure.  Topa would be a possibility, but now you're looking at the top of the TB order for the ninth.

2 out Duran - worry ONLY about the batter

[OvertheHill]

Straight gas, Homie 

[mrtwinsfan]

Got a call there--  been a ball most of the game

[Western SD Fan]

I guess Jeffers framed that pitch just right.  If Cash was already chippy at Nic Lentz, that may put him over the top.

Not much worse than France's strike Three.

[MMMordabito]

Definitely did not foresee the Twins with a chance to win the series AND have Ryan going the next day at this point when viewing the schedule earlier this week 

[Patzky]

Crunch time yet again. Didn't think it would be a possibility an hour ago.

looked like the france 3rd strike tickled the zone , , went back and looked on gameday 

[Patzky]

Ughhhhh the errors..

[mrtwinsfan]

Tampa  # 9 hitter  catcher - on base 4 times today,  and  JEFFERS STRIKES AGAIN

[Twindy]

Jeffers?

[Patzky]

102. One more out guys..

Of course. 

[Western SD Fan]

Dodged the slowest bullet of the game having that dribbler go foul.

[mrtwinsfan]

LENTZ---W,T,F,

[MMMordabito]

Hmmm ... Ball to Lowe, Strike to France

Ump is messing up on both pitchers at the crucial part of the game

[Patzky]

All water under the bridge if we can  eke or eek out a run here.

[Peter]

Time for a walk off win!!!

[ziggy]

Buck Truck Time.

[mrtwinsfan]

Nice  job Duran,   hope your arm dont fall off,  if it does thank your catcher

[Patzky]

Not often Buck goes 0/5
