Final week of the season and the Twins start a two-gamer against the Gardy-less Tigers #pouroneoutforGardy.
No announced starter for the Twins this morning but the Tigers trot out Tarik Skubai, who has won and lost a game against the Twins this year.
UPDATE: It's Homer Bailey!!!! Who even remembers he was on the team?
Nelson Cruz appears to still be nursing a sore knee so we probably won't see him today.
There's still a chance for the Twins to win the Central so I'd hope they take these last few games seriously, especially against a team that definitely is looking forward to wrapping up and going home.
September mid-week game so 6:40p start.
640 starts are weird, but I think they did them last year...?
BUXTON!!
H3ll yeah!!
Dont know if anyone saw, but Nelson Cruz has a full on robe, but Twins color his name and number on the back. Its glorious
It made an appearance in the dugout!
Umpire musical chairs? What's up with that?
Glorious
That was a sweet double play.
That'll work, too
YDNROER!
Spiders just walked off the Sox.
I'll admit to paying more attention to that one for a little bit, than to the Twins game.
Sox even scored two in the top of the inning. Cleveland meanwhile didn't start scoring until two outs.
need a rally here
Geez Mitch, you had a BB there
KEPPPPPPPPPP!
To the Max!!!
Leistung!
That wasn't an out, but still an amazing play from Donaldson.
Can haz 2Bux?
Crap.
SEND HIM!!
Can haz rainoff?
Ugh.
Rogers has horrific luck this season
Taylor not doing the job.
.404 BABIP. It's been hovering above .400 for a long time. It's going back up after this inning.
Two of the outs were rockets. The two hits were not.
Buxton is ridiculous
Eddie gets so many hits on terrible pitches.
And on so many outs on terrible base running decisions.
WINNAH!
Eddie giveth
Walk it off! Eddie and Max!
The BABIP gods hand Taylor Rogers a win
Exhibit A on the stupidity of that stat.
Kepler FTW
A half game behind the Hosers. I was told it was impossible!
My heart would break for the Sox if they would have to go on the road to the Yankmes in the first round.
I just got off a long zoom chat. Perfect timings.
