wegner Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Defense gives the Twins 3 runs, but then great Defense by Romy and Burger helps to save the game. Bullpen very solid. Great to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Hit 100 and 100.4 there. Romy saved the game with his defense at second...wouldn't have even been in the game if not for the Anderson knee tweak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 That was key because Lopez has been hot out of the gate and Lynn pretty much the exact opposite. Then the Lucas Giolito 2022-23 Experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Great job by Lopez and the bullpen. Given the pitching matchup and Twins lineup, that was a game you need to win 8/10 times 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) Also a big win considering we gave them basically 8 extra base runners...opportunities with hbp walks errors. Not a victory you usually get on the road in Minnesota. Now Lynn or Giolito need to get one of these next two or they're back to 5-8. 6-7 would be much better obviously.

chw42 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I wonder what the hell Lopez did over the winter to gain 2 MPH on his fastball. He's consistently hitting 99-100 whereas he sat high 90s most of last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Nice win. Wasn’t pretty tho. Here’s to hoping TA is OK, and we see him in the lineup tomorrow along with Moncada at 3B and AV at 1B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
