It's Stewart, take two! Last time didn't go SO bad, so let's try it again.

It's so sad that Mauer has turned to the juice.
I like this pitcher. Keep him out here.
Dave Winfield looks like he could still play ball.
WOW who is this Austin guy?
If Austin can ever start making decent contact, he could be pretty good.
Crax.
Crax++
Kohl Stewart if the right handed version of Mejia
Solid catch by Polanco, and I have no idea how he got that much on that throw or put it anywhere near the plate.
Well, that was suboptimal.
dang
Class act St. Pauli /Gopher Winfield in the CCO booth.
SANO!!!
Sano appears to be recalibrated.
Whose turn to homer this inning?
Jason Tyner
Watching the game at Target Field- grandstand seats are impressively high. A couple pop flies almost got up to my eye level.
My group has decided the Twins need more runners on base when we hit homeruns.
Unconventional, but it just...could...work...
Obv. Those solo shots just kill rallies.
Joe seems dialed in.
*gleefully awaits Joe's upcoming triple game winning triple*
That was darn close to being a game tying HR.
MG! Too little, not too late.
And somehow Stewart ended up with a higher game score than Carpenter?
Game Score will punish pitchers for each hit allowed. I'm not sure if it punished you more for home runs, but 3 home runs allowed would really kill your FIP. IIRC, Game Score doesn't give you bonuses for IP until after 5 IP, so there would be almost no difference between 5.1 IP and 2.2.
MLB uses Tango's version of game score so there are different weights to fit better with the modern game and what we learned about BABIP.
Austin is batting .350/.391/.800 since the trade. After the Hicks trade, the Yankees owe us anyways.
I'm going by the printed play-by-play, but it seems like a really quick hook for Stewart. It's not the seventh game of the World Series. How's he going to learn if you pull him every time he gives up a couple of runs?
He did a highwire act in the first inning and the 3rd was not going well. Molitor was right to pull him and try to not allow the Tiger to score 10 runs that inning.

Three seems like a long way from ten.
Not the way he was pitching
