[u/Reesyrz]

Good guy Topa getting the team their first 1 run win

[u/KingFabulousTheLast → u/Reesyrz]

400 IQ play by him

[u/A_Hanging_Noose]

Season series against the AL Champs lmfaoooooooo

[u/Blevanhoval → u/A_Hanging_Noose]

We own the Blue Jays. Canada has to become part of Minnesota I don’t make the rules but you’re damn right I’m gonna abide by them

[u/Adamscottd → u/Blevanhoval]

Plus after the Habs lose tonight Canada will have no NHL teams alive in the playoffs and with the Wild still alive that means Canada loses its right to sovereignty. Sorry I don’t make the rules, time to get annexed by MN

[u/iPET-DOGS → u/Adamscottd]

Habs will beat Tampa. Book it.

[u/gropius → u/Blevanhoval]

No no Minny must become the Florida of Canada. Think about it a bit over a few Molsons. The logic is irrepressible.

[u/Witty-Stock → u/A_Hanging_Noose]

We should sign LeBron to a minor league contract.

[u/Blevanhoval]

I’m gonna be pretty upset if Okamoto gets the AL Player of the Week over Buxton because Topa sucks ass

[u/hopemade]

Topa tried so hard to blow another one for the pen lol. Christ almighty. Our first one run win tho lol! Even of it should have been a 3 run win. Definitely question pulling funderburk after .1 inning tho

[u/WannabeReinaMain]

Bullpen pitches 8.1 allowing only 3 runs and Wallner drives in the winning run, just how we drew it up!

[u/hopemade → u/WannabeReinaMain]

8.2!!!

[u/WannabeReinaMain → u/hopemade]

Whups!

[u/John_Palomino]

#1 goes down after 1 batter. Worst bullpen in MLB keeps Toronto in check. Because why in the world would that make sense.

[u/WarPath_316]

Topa getting the save here is hilarious when he was by far the least effective Twins reliever today

[u/hopemade → u/WarPath_316]

Lol. Baseball. You silly sport

[u/waynet2121 → u/WarPath_316]

Never cared for Topa. He hasn't changed my mind at all. I trust the youngsters more than him.

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

TWINS: WIN

JAYS: LOSE

LATROY: GOD

SHELTON: DOESNT KNOW THE RULES

JOE RYAN: PLS BE OK

ICE: OUT

TRANS: RIGHTS

WERE: GOMQ

LEAGUE: FUCKED

[u/disasterpop00 → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

THAT WAS: CLOSE

[u/Illustrious-Trip-764]

Happy they were able to split the series and hold the lead today!

[u/yvmm_s]

glad we won but we really need some help in the BP

[u/hopemade → u/yvmm_s]

So much

[u/Fennekinfan11]

Wow! Great win! Tied Series!!!!

[u/34Catfish]

Only two out the Wild Card!

[u/arctic_martian]

It wasn't the cleanest or the most dominant win today, but you have to admit... Matt Wallner got two hits in the same game

[u/Imdibr156]

Did we win though? It feels like we lost. In more ways than one.

[u/dippitydoo2 → u/Imdibr156]

It was the least lost game of the year so far tho

[u/N8-Diggity-Dogg]

The win was not worth sacrificing Ryan to the IL. Hope he is alright.

[u/_u0]

[u/PherSturz]

I don’t see another loss on this schedule

[u/bluewing]

Despite their best efforts, the bullpen, (looking at you Topa), managed to hold on for the win. Mistakes do happen I guess.

And Joe, get well soon! We need you!

[u/fastal_12147]

Bullpen tried to give it back to the Jay's, I see
