Those were happier times back then.  Our squad was triumphant, masterful.

Now look at them!

 

Ump is squeezing Moran. Come on man.

Remember back on Tuesday when I put the over/under on 1-2-3 innings for Twins pitching this series at 3.5?

How'd I do?

I lost count at two.

Of the 7 times in mlb history a team has started the game with 3 straight homers, I'm betting this Twins team is the only one that blew it and lost.

This type of game is right out of Twins-Yankees central casting. Such a punch in the face for Twins fans.

Don't be so pessimistic.  We could forfeit.

No killer instinct on the Twins, when they’re down, you have to finish them off

I don’t know about that, big leads in the first inning are never sure things 

Twins epitimise "best of the worst and worst of the best"

MORAN thatta kid!!! 

Twins still have at least 3 innings innings worth of at bats.  It will be interesting to see if they can possibly pick up their intestines and heart and shove 'em back in.

I just checked in at 7-7 and by the time I read up on how it got to that point, you all have let it deteriorate to this!

I trusted you guys.

Every inning against this lineup feels like an entire game.

And 9th.

And every game.

This post aged well.  In my defense, though, those were simpler times back then.

6 more outs.

 

And 3 runs.

 

We got this.

They’re 7-8 against the top 5 AL teams. The Yankees IIRC on the graphic are 11-7. The Rays are 8-7. Morale of the story is the Twins are right in line with records against top AL teams as everyone else.

The Twins have never been able to stomp on the opposition's neck, while they' getting a spalding size 9, shoved up their own.

This really blows.

This game is what is often called "a teaching moment"

Minor league update: Spencer Steer hit a walkoff HR.

Yeah, it certainly taught me to believe we were over the Yankees hump 

Polo  having a hell of a game.

Gotta call time against Peralta, man is playing dirty with the quick pitch.

Yeah he’s focused 

I sense a morale failure at this point.....

Urshela and Polanco need a private Tudor

Looks like we will extend the season-series non winning streak vs NY to 20 years

 

people were born and graduated high school since the last time we win a season series against “them”
