    The 6th and 8th innings are an example of what I'm talking about, Twins led 2-1 and Arraez walked then came around to score to make it 3-1. Twins add another to make it 4-1. The Royals scored in the bottom of the 7th to make it 4-2, in the 8th Arraez again walked, moved to second on a single, to third on a fielders choice then scored on a wild pitch to make it 5-2 and the game was over then, top of the 9th comes and Twins score 4 more to blow it open. It was a thing of beauty.

    Buxton may be the best player on the Twins, but by the end of the season Arraez may be the most valuable. The game Saturday night Arraez completely took over, getting on base via hits and walks, driving in runs and scoring runs. He was a wrecking ball. It seemed like every time the Royals had momentum Arraez would come up the next half inning and do something to swing it back to the Twins. When he scored on that wild pitch in the 8th to make it 5-2 the Royals and their fans knew the game was over.

    And the Twins lead is 4 games as I said yesterday.

    That one at-bat is really a justification for the robo umps.
  5. rwilfong86
    If they lose yes, but don't count the chickens before they're hatched. I'm hoping the Yankees take care of business ?
  6. rwilfong86
    Gaining as much ground in the division in the next 2 weeks will be huge for when their schedule gets more difficult. They need every one of these wins right now. I'm actually been rooting for the Yankees to beat Chicago ? and that goes against every fiber of my being.
  7. rwilfong86
    4.5 games at the moment, Chicago won and if they win again tonight it will be 4.
  8. rwilfong86
    You are 100% correct. They won despite Rocco, not because of him. Rocco had conceded that game by leaving Cano in to get shelled but the offense bailed him out.
  9. rwilfong86
    Arraez knew what a strike was way more than the home plate ump today.
  10. rwilfong86
    At least they got 2 borderline calls in the 9th, on Merrifield on that low call for strike 3 and the check swing third strike on Dozier.
  11. rwilfong86
    Hindsight is 20/20 but that was still a head scratcher. Cano shouldn't have been left in.
  12. rwilfong86
    That Yankee trade is paying dividends more and more.
  13. rwilfong86
    Wrong haha
  14. rwilfong86
    If the Twins fall short this loss is completely on Rocco, not taking Cano out in the 6th before getting absolutely lit up. Especially when the game was 2-0 then. But agreed he should have showed a backbone and gotten tossed to stand up for his guy.
  15. rwilfong86
    Bring on the electronic strike zone!
  16. rwilfong86
    No joke, for a second I thought that was exactly what it was gonna be. the Old 5-4-3 around the horn triple play.
  17. rwilfong86
    Dick Bremer called it a make-up call from the "swing" before ?
  18. rwilfong86
    I think teams usually shift against Kepler, that was probably the flukiest I've seen in awhile.
  19. rwilfong86
    I live in Atchison, about an hour north on the Kansas side.
  20. rwilfong86
    Agreed but these are all things that should be considered. Last nights game actually went by pretty fast, it was the speediest game I've been to this season. Players did a good job of keeping the pace up.
  21. rwilfong86
    But both are issues that impact fan viewership nonetheless. I don't see MLB doing anything about blackouts though, so on the field changes will continue to be their route.
  22. rwilfong86
    Agreed about Sano, no surprise the team is playing so well in his absence. Also agree about Jorge Lopez, he would be a great back end reliever. Arraez has made some pretty sweet picks at first base on semi-errant throws from the left side of the infield but people don't seem to realize that.
  23. rwilfong86
    You would be surprised how many Twins fan live in the KC area, me included. The section I sat in last night behind the visitors dugout was full of Twins fans.
  24. rwilfong86
    My wife is a childhood friend of Jorge Lopez and we've followed his career for several years, I would be thrilled to see him in a Twins jersey.

    Streak continued! Win #5!
