First 2 innings we've had guys on first and second with zero outs. We have to score, Price isn't going to pitch like that all night

We have had all the chances in the world. You think that we would eventually have to break through! Price is awful tough though

Haven't seen him like this in awhile. So many bad pitches and only one run to show for it

Didn't see any of the game again tonight, but we need to capitalize when we get guys on base, especially with 0 or 1 outs, and especially against aces like Price. If we're going to stay at the top of the standings and even make a postseason push this year, we cannot afford to strand base runners

8 runs in the 9th. I want to see the highlights again.

Plus it saved some of my fanduel lineups

Guess who missed the game tonight because they were working again? Yep, it was me

Still, what an incredible ending! It takes a lot for me to get super excited watching replays when I already know what has happened, but man was watching the recaps awesome!

Who needs the ASG anyways??

Unreal finish. Who would have thought Suzuki and Santana would come through??

Man, what I would give to win these last 2 games before the AS break. Would put us 4.5 games ahead of the Tigers. Let's put them down back in the bottom of the standings where they should be

You guys... Regardless of what happens in our next 2 games against the Tigers, we are guaranteed to finish the first half of the year in playoff position! Currently .5 games back from the first wild card spot, but we own the 2nd spot and are 2.5 games up on the Tigers and O's. I love this!

Being the huge twins fan that I am, I would have never guessed this at the beginning of the year

Same here. Not going to lie, I predicted the Twins finishing last this year before the season started. But even if we collapse miserably in the 2nd half, we've shown that we can compete again. This has been a really, really exciting season
