  1. No luck involved in a line drive that lands foul by 12 inches, nope no luck at all.. 🙂
  2. It’s baseball, so anything is possible, but you can’t blow this many chances like Toronto has and not let it affect you.
  3. Well that’s what you call dodging a bullet Hopefully it carries over into the Houston series
  4. Wow I thought we were looking at a replay from yesterday
  5. He was out by a million miles (in baseball measurements), and he should have just owned it and got up and called for his glove.
  6. Now it’s time to send leg kick Kikuchi to the showers 🚿
  7. Dang, did not need that walk. I think the only way Toronto will score in this game is on a home run, because that’s what it it looks like they are swinging for
  8. In the blink of an eye, we went from an old school pitching duel, to an AnalytivsTM video game platoon split simulation
  9. Somebody did mention it in the game recap. It was one of those crazy plays that worked out just right, that we will always remember. https://twinsdaily.com/forums/topic/64980-twins-3-blue-jays-1-national-nightmare-over-lewis-lopez-and-defense-deliver-playoff-win/?do=findComment&comment=1330919&_rid=2874
  10. Jose Berrios = sleeper agent! One good thing about Lopez’s good start yesterday is we can now openly say Berrios is back on track and a very good pitcher again in 2023. But didn’t Berrios once say he wanted to help the Twins win a World Series? 🤣
  11. I think that would be Juliens best role for this postseason is bat off the bench (pinch hitter) — nothing wrong with that.
  12. Great point. It was a heck of a play by Correa and I think most shortstops have that instinct, but not all. And if Correa wasn’t playing over by second to start with, to compensate for Julien, it might not happen. And Jeffers finishing it. Super cool play.
  13. Lopez was great! The Twins made the plays, got a couple breaks, and Lewis provided the offense. 🙂 The fans were in it all day! Game 2 tomorrow!!
  14. Twins also finished with 8 grand slams, tied for third most. Not bad, considering their bases-loaded ineptitude at the start of the season. Royce Lewis hit grand slams in back to back days in August. This probably snuck under the radar, but Jazz Chisholm did the same thing for the Marlins in September. What may or may not be forgotten is that against the Astros in 2020, the Twins left the bases loaded in the first without scoring in both games. Sano batted sixth and grounded out in game 1, and Kirilloff flew out in game two. That's why I think Royce Lewis should bat sixth in Game 1 tomorrow!
  15. Like I said, I do expect a win tomorrow. But here is what is hanging over the fans right now: Current Postseason WIN/LOSS Streaks:
  16. I felt this way in 2019 lol But that's why they play the game. If the Twins sweep Toronto, Toronto will then be the owner of the longest postseason losing streak, at 7 games. (Texas currently sits at 6 losses, and Tampa Bay at 5, and they play each other)
  17. I think a big factor in deciding to use Luplow to pitch in a tie game in the last game of the season that meant nothing was, “whaddya gonna do about it?”
  18. I have been properly corrected about Toronto not having left handers in their bullpen. I knew about Mayza and the starters, but Genesis Cabrera was a new one to me. 🙂 I don’t know if Ryu as their fifth starter makes the roster, but I’m thinking Kikuchi absolutely will. The possible idea that people are discussing of Kikuchi as a lefty coming in to pitch for several innings, the way the Twins might use Varland, or even to start a game as an opener, is a very interesting wrinkle.
  19. But nothing. That's part of what makes him so special.
