2020-08-18: Brewers (Burnes) at Twins (Maeda) [Brewers lose, 4-3 in 12 innings -- Brewers spoil Maeda’s no hit bid in the 9th and rally for 3 runs, but fail to get a run across in extras]

Interesting pitching choice by the Twins to go to the lefty when the first guy to face was the righty Garcia, then Yelich, then a bunch of righties.

 

It worked out about as poorly as you could plan.

I think Rogers is still their closer.

Williams just hit 98?

This one is about over.

Battle to tie it only to give it right back.

 

Since when is getting squeezed for a walk in a tie game an automatic death sentence? I get the pessimism tonight, but sheesh.

 

Edit: Um ... ha! Neener neener neener

Williams is good.

Piña and Cruz are going to be the extra runners at 2B this inning. Not exactly a lot of speed for either team.
Not just “at Night” anymore.

Too bad the Brewers have to start with Pina on second with the bottom of the order coming up.
Note: If I raise something as a POSSIBILITY that does not mean that I EXPECT it to happen.

I bet there are people so young on this forum that they don't even know that we traded Nelson Cruz over 14 years ago.

 

One of the absolute biggest meltdowns I've ever seen on this site that day.

The Twins might go with a pinch runner.

To be fair, that trade was a bit of a head scratcher. Not that we traded Lee but for what the content of the trade was.

No doubt. Still amazing that someone on planet Earth thought Shrek could play baseball.
