Louie Varland
vs
Hunter Brown
Final game against the Astros this season. The Twins won the series at home in early April and today's rubber match would make it two series wins against a good team.
This is Hunter Brown's rookie season, but not his first season as he tossed 20 ⅓ innings last year across seven games. He earned Houston's sole win in the first series with seven innings, two hits, and a single unearned run. Here's hoping the Twins have figured out a better plan of attack for their hot-or-not batters.
Brown going to come close to the single game strikeout record tonight
I doubt he'll be allowed to throw that many pitches.
A BASES LOADED HIT! ITS A MIRACLE!
In the park is still in the park.
two bases loaded hits in one game is that allowed?
I’d suggest asking the umpires, but it’s clear their grasp of rules is tenuous at best.
Donnie barrels!
Ground rule…something?
dang, it was 5 years ago since the last time a Twins pitcher tossed a CGSHO
Nice, Jorge. :/
Nice, Jorge :/
Jorge is conducting Pagán rituals.
We might have to start calling them "Jorge Lopez safe" leads.
"Jorge Lopez inning extensions"
López going for the FIP quadfecta this inning.
Gotta feel pretty good about yourself if you're Brock Stewart and you strike out the middle of the order after watching whatever Lopez was doing out there
also after what he did Monday, too
Twins pitchers were lagging badly in HBP
Young hounds and sparklers all around
Gonna probably need to get a Louie #37 custom shoe set for my same-named brother this year for Christmas.
