2019 Game Logs: Game 30 – Good @ Evil

37 Comments

Here we are. The Yankees. The Twins have looked good so far, but looking good is what the Yankees start doing well before they even step on the field. Most teams in baseball struggle to sustain success. The Yankees, with all their resources, find it hard to avoid. I suppose they struggle to sustain failure - they're gonna end up good, without even trying.

Yes, the Yankees have had injuries. No, this isn't the absolute best lineup or pitching staff that NY could have fielded. But it's still darn scary. And it's especially scary because there's a, let's say, "excruciatingly painful", history of when the Twins and Yankees play in May.

But maybe this iteration of the Twins will be something different. Maybe Nelson Cruz and whoever is playing catcher tonight will each hit 3 bombs, because that's what they seem to do. Maybe we'll get Good Gibson showing up to embarrass James Paxton. Maybe Aaron Boone will be dared by his bench coach into having every player only sacrifice bunt, no matter the circumstance. And maybe he'll actually take that dare. I sure hope so.

Or maybe it'll just be some good baseball, either way. I sure hope for that too.

    1. YES guys showed the pitch again with the box and it was way outside. #taleofthetape

  5. Nice wave by NY 3B coach - thanks, Pally! Out by a yanquis mile.

    1. The one that forces Buxton and Cron to not catch the ball or Garver not to block a pitch he should have? Gibson threw 61 of his 100 pitches for strikes despite a tiny strike zone. This was not Bad Gibby. This was a bad game for the Twins all around.
