He's throwing way too many pitches for that. I'd take 5 scoreless though

Doesn't matter if the Twins keep grounding into loving double plays every inning.

this reminds me of game 5 against the phillies. hopefully it has the same end result

Grossman would be hard pressed to find a spot on a AAA team with eyes like his


He actually had a hit today, which is great, but every other at bat is just awful

Why did the Rangers bat Grossman third in a game they needed to win to hold onto the division

he's got some serious dirt on bochy to keep getting pencilled into the lineup at all, let alone at 3rd

Can't wait to see what new and interesting way the Twins manage to find to not score here

Man it was a close game the whole time but why the gently caress are you running Henderson on a 3-1 count against the third best team at stopping steals? He isn't even that great of a runner, he only has 10 on the year. There's a lot of moments to point to and say "that cost us the game" in a one run game but that's gotta be near the top of the list.
