The K pitch was filthy. That is some kind of arm.

On a barely related note, we are three outs away from a ghost runner. Cleveland would have Franmil Reyes.

as the runner or at the plate?

Not PH Buxton for Gordon in the 8th inning of a tie game is certainly a decision

Hey! Buxton played like 3 games in a row, HE NEEDS HIS REST!! /s

Or a pinch runner. But let's make that unnecessary.

Arraez is a hitting machine! Should probably hit #1 so he could be knocked in more.

[stringer bell]

I'd run for Arraez here. Pretty unlikely he'll get another at-bat. Contreras, not Buxton.

[cHawk]

Way to go, Polanco. Great at-bat.

[Squirrel]

Okay, Sanchez … do it!

[cHawk]

****.

[Squirrel]

Damn … good play 

[PDX Twin]

Aren't the other Central Division teams supposed to throw the ball away twice and give us the winning run? What with these Cleveland guys?

[stringer bell]

Sánchez is the Twins ghost runner. Hurray. 

[D. Hocking]

I am dog-sitting where there is cable, so I can actually watch the game, so I should be happy to be able to watch extra innings, but really would have been ok with a walk-off home run there.

Better be a pinch runner.

Pinch Contreras for him?

[IndianaTwin]

Well, do wah, diddy diddy, now we have the stupid rule with the Manfred Man on second base.

Whoo ****ing hoo.

[Mill1634]

Really don't understand not giving Duran another inning. He's going to be unavailable tomorrow no matter what, and probably the day after.

[mrtwinsfan]

Samuel Deduno reborn here ??

[tony&rodney]

I'll say it again and again  ... Manfredball is total ********.

 

[tony&rodney]

FWIW, I wrote that before the first pitch.

[Danchat]

I don't love going Cotton here, and he's already hung a couple of nice pitches for Gimenez to hit... would have liked to see more from Duran, at least one more inning.

[mrtwinsfan]

THis not using Duran to start the 10th is assnine,  starting with a runner on 2 with his kkk  ability, Some strange moves  

[Aggies7]

 Can’t leave a small village on the bases and expect to win

[Mill1634]

Yeah I'm not sure that the hitter is getting a surefire double right there

[Mill1634]

If Rocco gets ejected you can be pretty sure you ****ed up

[mrtwinsfan]

Rocco,, Earl Weaver you are not !!!

[Schmoeman5]

Why is Baldelli arguing that call. As soon as Jimenez rounded 1st he ran into Miranda. 

[RickOShea]

Rocco really gets volatile when he's getting tossed.  LOL!

[cHawk]

Guardians: Score 2 runs to take the lead

Me: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-----
