Upton caught a fly ball in CF that Aj tagged on and moved into second base. If Upton had fielded it normally AJ doesnt get to second and they turn a double play on the next at bat.

 

Instead the crazy run down happen, AJ gets on third and Sox win.

That's debatable . He ran the ball down in the right center gap and he did make the mistake of thinking AJ wouldn't tag and trotting further into the gap once he caught it . If he fields it normally he's still got some momentum carrying him into the left center gap. AJ might've tagged anyway. 3-2 Twins now heading to the 8th.

AJ very well may have the highest "Baseball IQ" in the league. I've never seen anybody exploit other players' weaknesses and use the rulebook to his advantage in the way that he does.

 

I haven't seen Jenks pitch on a regular basis, but is that two-seamer/sinker new? I know that he has that hook and a slider and believe that I've seen him throw a two-seamer before, but never with that much movement.

before Paulie got up to bat I said "it will erase everything you've done this year if you just get me a hit" so now I'm #1 paulie fan.

 

 

Hopefully this game will be the spark we need to take us through September
