Blue Jays GDT: 2015 v24) Next: @ PHI| Tues, Aug 18| 7:00pm ET/4:00pm PT | Dickey vs Nola

[tml19]

Over

You say that now but how could you reasonably say a game is over when there is only a lead of one. I don't care if it is the Cardinals vs a AAA team there is still a chance when the score is that close.

Beauty win. Offense picked up Dickey.

 

[shaner8989]

They are down by 1 run with 2 innings to play. How am I wrong to say there is a chance they come back. The yanks bullpen has been over used way too much recently, It wouldn't surprise me at all for them to score at least 1.

Over dude. Its all about understanding the situation. It was over as soon as it was 5-4

 

[shaner8989]

Awesome win tonight. Great come back. Bullpen was amazing

 

[stakesishigh]

Feels good.

 

[EpochLink]

Win!

 

[Longshot]

Not even remotely close comparables. Just so wrong

Jays were down 5-3.

Twins were down 5-4.

But those two situations aren't "remotely close comparables."

Too funny.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Yay! Offense woke up, and Dickey yanked (luckily) before it was too late.

Now Minny has to start doing something over there...

Too funny.

To be fair they really aren't.

 

[SDig14]

Well, we can still hope Tampa, Baltimore and Texas all lose.

Of course. However it's all about the situation. Yanks are not losing at home after arod belts a grand slam to take the lead in the bottom of 7 with 2 guys who are lights out in the 8-9 innings

It was over without being technically over

I don't even care what happens in NY. We won our game, and that's all that matters right now. 1 GB with 40+ games to go is not a big deal.

 

[shaner8989]

To be fair they really aren't.

Thank you. Someone understands

Except it wasn't.

The Twins were one swing of the bat from tying the game if it stayed at 5-4. Unfortunately, the Twins bullpen continued to suck and the Yankees lead widened. But, it was most certainly not over as soon as the Yankees had a one-run lead.

Twins were down 5-4.

Too funny.

Jays had 3-4 innings to come back playing one of worst teams in the league.

Twins have 2 innings to come back facing one of the best bullpens in the league.

 

[Canada4Gold]

why is sportsnet showing bWAR and not even the updated stats? Get the **** out of here with that ****

It was ONE RUN. That is ONE swing away, you literally can't say it was over regardless of situation.

 

[theaub]

Anyone who didn't think that game was over hasn't watched enough Yankee/Twin games over the past 15 years

Its not if, its how

I agree it was very unlikely but it was definitely not over

 

[Shimso]

tbh if it was MIN 5 - NYY 4 it'd probably still be over for the twins

 

[Quiksilver*]

Didn't shaner abandon this team weeks ago?

 

[stavs*]

wow mets bullpen is choking

 

[Clark4Ever]

I don't care what Zaun says. Donaldson is having an MVP worthy season. He came through in the clutch yet again tonight to pull out a victory from the jaws of defeat.

Big kudos to the bullpen tonight as well.

 

[PJJ]

his WAR went up 0.4 after this game wtf
