Eight games means we are already five percent done with the 2024 season and what can we glean from those 8 games? The Twins ass bats are in full non-glory. Three hits yesterday and 18 straight outs to finish the game would normally be eyebrow raising, but unfortunately pretty much sums up the way the Twins have been hitting this year. Eight games is also practically the definition of SSS so hopefully a change is afoot.
Louie Varland back on the mound tonight hoping to build off an ok season debut. Tyler Glasnow for the Dodgers so Twins batters not getting a break (8 hits allowed this year while facing 66 batters).
Freealonzo's "Take it to the Credit Union" surefire winner: Parlay time! Ohtani HRs=2; Jose Miranda SO=2
First Pitch: 6:40p
Wallner: 12 AB, 1 H, 2 BB, 10 K
Things aren't going well when you're spookying opponent's HRs
At what point will this small sample size need a diaper change?

Oooh, Twins have two hits this game, and it's not over yet!
The final score makes this seem a lot closer than it was. Kirilloff's home run brought the Twins' win expectancy all the way up to 4.1% and they still had no outs.
