Can’t believe they’re pulling him in the 4th.

Panic move

 

[TRF Guy]

Double play but another run scores. 2-0

Panic move

Panic for what. He was dealing. Head scratcher for sure

He was making the twins look like fools.

Reminds me of the odd decisions Cito Gaston made when we played them in the ‘91 ALCS. Like having Alomar, one of their best hitters, sacrifice bunt.

Just cannot believe that manager pulled Berrios. Questionable at best move...

The manager panicked, got scared, and went to the pen too soon.

Meaning you don’t pull a quality starter out that early with a bit of trouble occurs.

That’s all Sonny’s gonna need today.

He gave up 2 weak hits and a walk while striking out 5. The man must panic easily

Many can when the pressure’s on.

BTW - the game is telecast in NYC as well

Yet another jam for Sonny

 

[JimmyJamesMD]

Sonny Gray struggles putting guys away Needs a change up

 

[TRF Guy]

He’s out!!!

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Yet another jam for Sonny

At least it wasn’t peanut butter

Wow. Shades of Harper-Gaetti. Crowd is going berserk.

 

[JimmyJamesMD]

Taking out kirloff and wallner so early is also absurd

 

[GopherVotary]

Wow. Shades of Harper-Gaetti. Crowd is going berserk.

Laudner, not Harper. But yeah, very similar situation.

 

[BarnBurner]

Agreed. I really wanted Waller to hit there.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Time for some insurance

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Berrios' career OPS against goes way up in the 4th through 6th innings. Not defending the move - but that's probably what it was based on.

Yep, you're right. Thanks

 

[From the Parkinglot]

No pitcher should ever get that call with all the movement the catch had just to catch it

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

What a hack

Only 10 strikes out of 13 pitches Brockstar

 

[GopherVotary]

Give him another inning, Rocco!

 

[TRF Guy]

Come on Royce

Glad they pulled him. Could be 0-0 yet had they not

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Two straight days of "good" Griffen Jax. So far the only shaky bullpen pitcher has been Varland. A little surprised that Pagan has not thrown in either game.

 

[TRF Guy]

Duran time means nervous time

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Duran time means nervous time

Just think when he has a few years of being the closer under his belt- uffda

 

[TRF Guy]

Not liking those first 2 pitches
