Catchers lose blocked balls all the time and nothing came of it.
If Jeffers hadn't looked helpless at the plate in this series, no one would be throwing a fit about the lost ball.
Astros fans booing Correa is a perfect example of why everything from Texas is terrible.
Just the dumbest thing ever. The Astros didn't even TRY to retain him.
The Twins are in a pretty good position today. The key of the game is not letting Valdez go 7-8 innings, get into the Houston pen early, and sub back in all the LHB in the fifth and sixth.
The outcome of the game is not the only enjoyment I derive from watching it. The Twins game was engaging and exciting for all but two innings. I had fun watching, even if the outcome wasn't ideal.
Whereas I turned off the Dodgers game after the second inning.
No moral victories but I want to see competitive baseball, which we saw last night. For nearly two decades I watched the Twins be non-competitive in the postseason, I want to be able to actually enjoy the games I'm watching after so much suffering.
