The score is obviously different but this game reminds me of Game 163 against Chicago. Twins offense doing nothing, mediocre pitcher throwing up a great game, and then Boom. One big HR turns the tide of the game and the season.
They could give every call for the history of the game in the Twins favor and I would still hate it. If they want to get rid of the human element of the game they should just replay each pitch where either the hitter or the pitcher messes up.
This is one of my two favorite times of the year. I love the final week of the baseball season to watch those 4-6 teams that are fighting for their postseason lives. I'm just glad this year the Twins are one of those teams.
What terrifies me about starting Santana on three days rest is I can about guarantee that his 105 pitch limit would be down to about 85. That means an extra inning or two out of our bullpen.
