It’s not how you start the game, it’s how you finish

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”

We have a four gamer in NY in September. 

We'll sweep.

Who are these Yankees relievers and how do they all have sparkling ERA and K/9s? I consider myself a pretty hardcore baseball fan and I’ve literally never heard of Michael King warming up in their bullpen who has a 2.90 ERA and 12.2 K/9. 

[RickOShea]

I didn't know English was famililar with baseball.

My fault, I assumed (hope) it was just a 3 gamer

Yeah, but in a baseball thread, "John" works so well.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Double play.

[MadHits]

Thank God Luis is alright. He's taken a beating this series. 

[Aggies7]

Just simply cannot have a clean inning

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?

Expand  

Rhetorical question deserves rhetorical answer: Giraffe.

 

/ actual answer, which you no doubt know, unless I screwed up the quick review: top of the 9th in the first game, top of 1st/3rd/6th/8th in second game,  top of 3rd today.  Shoulda taken the over, given our pitching juggernaut - even Pagan took part in the fun

[RickOShea]

Is Judge, Herman's 1st or 2nd son?

 

[MadHits]

C'mon Moran ?

Well maybe Urshella and Polanco need a tutor

[SockNet]

Provis and Gladden really make the strike zone for Twins pitchers seem small,

I'd say we're not getting the calls overall.

[Aggies7]

Oh my god 

[cheeseheadgophfan]

Is Angel Hernandez behind the plate?   This guy is AWFUL----ever since Boone bitched in about the 5th inning, the Twins have gotten zero borderline calls.....although he's been bad for both teams.

[MadHits]

Why don't we have someone warmed up?!?

[Aggies7]

Ballgame.

first person to say “at least we hung with them” is getting a virtual punch in the nose 

[LVTwinsfan]

Yankees are the first to 10, they win

[MMMordabito]

[Aggies7]

Just total bollocks from this team

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Still our game to win.

I’ve been following this game long enough to know that hanging with them, isn’t worth a thing.

We've got some secret Mariano Rivera clone hidden away in a corner of the bullpen that no one has bothered to mention?

[Parfigliano]

They curl up in a ball and wet themselves.  Its psychological
