Yankees (Schlittler) vs Twins (Matthews): 9/16/25, 6:40pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Today's Yankees pitcher is the nickname of a guy who throws a really bad splitter.

This Twins team is destroying the AL East lately.

I guess better late then never.

In the least...take the series....my favorite result would be sweeping those damn Yankees and downgrading their wild card standing.....I have seen too many ugly defeats in the playoffs with the Twins..

16-12 against the AL East (93 win pace)

50-72 against everyone else (66 win pace)

Pretty on-brand for this wackadoodle season the Twins have had.

I was more going on the 1.000 winning percentage they are on this week. Good enough for me.

Undefeated!

RUNS BATTED IN*

<ducks for cover>

You just want to see this board devolve into culture war chaos, don't you shortround? 

Or should I say Arthur Fleck?

Exit velocity. O'Niel Cruz leads MLB in exit velocity. You know what that's gotten him? A .204 batting average and .687 OPS. But at least he leads the league in exit velocity!

Second verse, same as the first...

[Parfigliano]

Gasper, Fitzgerald and Outman.  Series win not important?

[Parfigliano]

How many runs will Zebby give up with 2 outs tonight?

Baldelli using the 'draw names out of a hat' method of lineup construction 😐

Not doing so hot with one out either 

[Aggies7]

They’re certainly swinging away. Looking at our lineup, we can’t fall behind much further 

[The Great Hambino]

Is Fitzgerald afraid of the ball?  That was weird

[Parfigliano]

Never seen a throw to a guy covering 2B lost in lights/sun/crowd

Getaway month.

Morneau: "Good at bat."

Chief: "PA."

[Parfigliano]

I thought against Yankees the could draw around 30,000 per game.  Guess not.
