2017 AL Wild Card game: Minnesota Twins vs. NY Yankees

Twins in 10 innings

Yankees in 2 innings

i'm less sure about this one than the NL game. i'm guessing the yankees.

see Eric, the best team doesn't always win in baseball

Cameron on how MIN can win

https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/how-the-twins-can-beat-the-yankees-tonight/

Berrios likely first out of the bullpen -- missed that he relieved last Friday as a test run

Please god let the twinkies win this one.

The Yanks could go on a run if they win this game -- they've got a few scary hitters and a great bullpen. Which is why they must be stopped. Tonight.

Anybody know where I can find a stream of this tonight that won't throw the "update your Flash!!!!" scareware at me?

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

*bangs pots and pans together and screams*

START. GAME. PLEASE.

voted yankees, rooting for twins.

That's a start.

lol a Yankee Stadium cheapo

WmC you will still have to whack pop-ups

http://firstrowi.com/baseball

a second yankee stadium cheapo

TWINS

i don't think dozier's was cheap

Am I going to have to subscribe to this shit on cable just for one night? I know the Yanks will lose. I can feel it.

I cancelled PS Vue weeks ago and thought it had expired last week, but I checked before the game and it's still working, so I have ESPN tonight. Loving the game so far, fukk u yankese.

love when the batter 'just drops the head of the bat'

1/3 ip lol

potentially a 45.00 ERA

go twins

YCPB!

go twins

How long until the third Johan Santana emerges

Gregorius hitting 4th?

pace of play disaster

lol

12 pitchers, 5:18 game time

lol i'm stupid

what a game already

does santana also get pulled after 1/3rd of an inning?

well this is going til 1 a.m. (at least, per Andy K)

i have never rooted so hard for the twins

if only because if i have to live through an entire postseason of aaron judge slobbering i will die

I've seen this game before.

Neil Allen has the same haircut as when he was traded for Keith Hernandez.

78 pitches in the game so far

You weren't getting that call, Johan.

lol at the results of this poll btw

46 minute first inning, 81 pitches.

me too k3v, i thought all of us but you were Stankee haters!

Byron Buxton is Beautiful

Glove of Buxton

home run derby

it feels like we are at the 8th or something.

running on Sanchez, that's good to see.

At this rate is Girardi gonna have a pitcher to strike out a guy in the 6th or 7th?

History! This is the first winner-take-all postseason game ever in which neither starter got past the 2nd inning.

1:45 to play 3

Game Scores: Santana, E. 18; Severino, L. 11.

buxton out :(

performance in high-leverage situations is a cool stat

even w/ a paint-scraper

i think we can safely call Aaron Judge 'Mr October' now

Judgtober

ESPN Radio crew speculating we'll see CC or another NYY starter on the mound tonight

my favorite baseball player is All Rise Judge and i just spent $129.95 on his commemorative judge bat

man the True Yankee cottage industry has been so desperate since jeter died

true Yannkee moments (tm) (r) for everyone

didn't Judge just have a better season than Fistpump ever did?

They're gonna go with a starter cause Betances has been iffy of late and they'd rather save Chapman for the next round *knock wood*

the yankees and rob manfred just agreed that derek je2r's legacy will be absorbed by All Rise The Judge, their career stats have been merged and judge is actually a really good shortstop if you watch him every day

this merging will be commemorated with a commemorative statue of All Judge digesting the exhumed corpse of the now-forgotten yankee captain

i hear they're gonna do another 9/11 because it just feels wrong that they did the first one without judge

sanchez got narded

yowza direct hit

i feel another october legend occurring

Heroic performance by Robertson

now THAT'S how you get hit in the balls

shame on you qualx, i just saw a pic of Jeetz in his Marlins office, with iPads and hand lotion on his desk.

torture motherfucker. torture.

dangit, hope the video of this game is up on mlb.com or elsewhere later. i really need to grab video of the part where Sanchez's balls died because the pitcher's simultaneous expression was priceless

nm, someone else got it

god i love baseball

its really sad, he was a testicle

you see a catcher getting wanged on the bongos by a foul ball

true yankees fans see a warrior dying for his country

Makes about as much sense as anything in politics these days.

hopefully zach will be happier when more ppl have heard of manny machada after he joins another team

wait, you're mixing me up with someone k3vin! all i've said on this thread is go twins and then made fun of sanchez getting hit in the balls (RIP)

too many karls malone

oh wait - there is another zach.

it's true, tonight i am enjoying too many bulleit rye malones

How were you supposed to know he was Iron Balls McGinty?

some day there will be contact microphones embedded into jock straps and cups so we can really hear the action, ALL the action

no gopro no credibility

fuck the Yankees for making me kinda like them

Man, Robinson's reaction was a little OTT

i'll enjoy the switch to hating him once i hear michael kay say a single godforsaken word about him

can't wait for all my favorite players to go to the yankees and get their testicles smushed

how do u miss the base?

indians must be loving the yankees burning through their bullpen.

so who's ready for a Chapman meltdown?

fuck the Yankees for making me kinda like them

shock treatment 4u

Statcast says Jose Berrios threw the Twins’ hardest pitch tonight, at 97.0 mph. The Yankees threw 60 (!) pitches harder than that.

@fishingwithnate
