Zebby gave the team exactly what was needed. Bravo! 

Honestly was one of my favorite wins of the season. Every W feels huge right now. Get greedy tomorrow. 

Sax...yes, every win is huge. Someone has to come out of this mad scramble for the last playoff spot and that team should have enough momentum built up to make a run. It might as well be us.

After thinking about this some more, I think Alex Jackson cursed the team when he’s DFA’d and reversed it when he was called back up, LOL. I am really starting to wish we had another year of control on Minter. He has been solid since coming over. I just hope Amick doesn’t make us regret that trade for a rental.  
 

Gomez just keeps knocking down saves. That and Bell continues to rake at the end of the season.  I will have to update the playoff chances in my post trade thread but I was getting close to giving up on the team. One last point, Culpepper seems to be hitting his stride.  Let’s get the sweep!

Bell nearly put the ball in orbit!

Sorry, but I need to give a shoutout to Tyler Mahle. He's not having a great season but he was great last night, going into the 7th having given up just two runs on 6 hits and 76 pitches. He might have pitched a complete game on less than 100 pitches at that rate.

LOL.  I couldn't be less worried about a player haunting the Twins.

That and do you really think advancing in the Twins system would happen as quick - we have a power hitters in A.A.A. and will be stuck there forever. Wallner-Sabato  2 examples

Great win!!! Let’s get the sweep today!!!

What is going on with Nance? He hasn’t pitched in at least 5 days but was effective before that. Good to see Ryan was throwing off a mound before the game too.
