    Game of inches.
    Inches away from clearing the bases, instead an inning ending DP

    I wonder if we're getting "we want Houston" chants after the Minny and Toronto game...

    Which also means he is due for 8 innings of 1 hit pitching.

    It's normal but yeah, I would think teams go with a champagne toast for winning the WC round. In 2020 due to Covid restrictions, they didn't allow any team teams to have this kind of celebration in any round.

    Well, they had to bust out the superglue for Duran's pitching hand, maybe that's a good sign for the Jays

    This is the twins World Series after their tremendous drought, especially if they end up ending it in 2 games.

    They’ll get swept by the stros or a gentleman’s sweep with the twins getting one back home as a feel good story.

    Looks like we are getting the best team of the 2.
    Are Twins peaking at right time?

    Welp both series in the AL ended in sweeps

    this league won’t allow sweeps assumption is a bookies/books dream. They clean all the square bets who chase extended series

    16 hits between these two teams and just 2 runs, one of which scored on a double play.
