An event not completely dissimilar to that happened to the Sox in Texas a few years back and completely derailed their season. Score 30 runs if you want to.

This is going to be a much tougher series. Gonna need our pitching to really step up, which won't be easy with this Twins offense and with Abreu out.... yikes.

Anderson was on 2nd.

Come on boys. Get out of here with a split. I think the next Minnesota series is going to be far tougher than the first one (and the Twins played us hard in 2 of them).

Any chance he plays game 2 or is thatbout of the question? Knowing Abreu he will play if he can lol

I would have chose something other than the 4 seamer. The foul ball prior to that showed he was catching up to it. Thankfully Billy was out there and not Leury. Just saved 3 runs.

That cutter was disgusting.

JAKE FUCKING LAMB Eat that, page 7.

For a second, I was having flashbacks to a particular game the Sox went up huge, only to barely win the game. Meanwhile it ignited the Twins who rode that through a dominant season against the White Sox.

The 2003 Twins would have scored there.

I guess he also predicted AVs home run today in the pregame show.

OMG Frank Thomas just made me bust a gut

I know everyone likes to hate on Yaz for his BA, but this dude is finding ways to keep contributing offensively. Walks can be killers. And now he just destroyed a ball. Lol.

It doesnt hurt when you get hits against the Twins. That will turn you into a fan favorite really fast.

Billy CRUSHED that ball

Billy put a fucking RIP on that 2-0 pitch ?

Mercedes is an impressive hitter.

I hope the fans are giving it to Donaldson on the walk of shame.

Whoa they are bad...

Yas could have a > .400 OBP when he starts hitting a bit, and then no one will be complaining anymore.

So much this.

Vibes today and in this game are just not there.

They're hitting the fastball and the change. Unless the deception is completely gone, I have to think that teams have picked up on some sort of pitch tipping.
