That's going to be quite the memorable turning point if the Sox don't win. Paniagua Burke/Hunter Thome/Thornton 2008 Jenks meltdown against Hawk's favorite CFer Lew Ford Hocking Blanco.

Well the triple play at least guarantees more embarrassment for TLR and the coaching staff...ESPN and MLB Tonight Buxton for MVP highlights.

So Katz is penalized for something he didn't actually do? With a competent defense all these pitchers would look a lot better.

The only other triple play like that of course was against the White Sox in 1976.

Cueto Kopech and Cease have been great. Lynn is coming around. The whole argument here is about Giolito. Because even Banks Martin and Lambert are pitching key innings and doing pretty well.

Engel's two jobs are defense and base running. Period. Didn't he get the memo about not exerting himself?

If Engel was standing on the bag tagging then Moncada wouldn't have started advancing with him...but they have to watch the ball and or McEwing.

He was reaching or feeling with right foot but no reason you're not standing on the bag waiting to see what happens first.

Engel never tagged second.

I think Moncada was just reading Engel ahead of him instead of watching the ball...

If Engel tags he can crawl into third.

Engel is the first one who didn't tag up.

Another year of Pollock? Jax not used to going two. Oh my god.

How did Pollock swing through that?

That's good hitting there. Expected a K.

Problem is Pollock would have to drive them in.

Moncada bunt? No DP ball on infield here or K.

Cameron Indoor or Phog Allen Fieldhouse.

Have to do some situational hitting here. Can't leave him at second.

That worked out nicely. Abreu is the only one Sox can count on.

Twins crew even said Abreu should be on first. Morneau is convinced it deflected.

TLR better come out and argue this one if they don't overturn it.

Thielbar or Duffey much better than Duran...

Abreu trying for homers now...

Nor was Arraez the best hitter in baseball. Complexion of team really changed with Donaldson/Cruz out and Correa Urshela Sanchez in. Lots of playoff experience and confidence. Then the moves for Ryan Bundy Archer Paddack...stabilized rotation.
