#The Twinkies LOST again! 🙂
Positives from today’s Cleveland baseball:
IssaBibe is a man who can throw a ball quite well, and I’m glad he plays for the Cleveland Guardians. Today, Tanner Bibee goes 6.2IP, 5H, 2R, 1BB, and 5K on 96 pitches. A quality start against the Twins? Quite enjoyable!
JOSH NAYLOR GAME PART TWO!!! Offense gets 5 runs off of 7 hits, a walk, and a stolen base, with the power coming from a PAIR of Josh💨 solo home run as he reaches (and passes) 30 home runs for the first time in his career! José🐐 and Gimenez each slap a single, with Gimmy also stealing a base. PH Manzo🥸 came in for an RBI single, PH Brennan🐦 got an RBI single of his own (hi PR Straw!), AND ROCCHIO WALKS US OFF!!!
One of those days where it’s worth pointing out- PLATINUM GLOVE AT SECOND BASE. HE REALLY GOOD.
K’d Smith(1.1IP), Clase🐉(1IP), and Gaddis(1IP, 2R(1ER)) combine for 3IP, 3H, 2R(1ER), 0BB, and 2K
Jonathan Rodriguez likes hitting home runs for Columbus. CBus wins 3-0 today, behind JRod hitting his 29th home run of the year. Raynel Delgado went 2/3 with 2 RBI and a double, while Arias had a double of his own and a stolen base. On the mound, Doug Nikhazy went 6IP, 3H, 0R, 2BB, and 3K on 87 pitches. Behind him, Aleman(1IP), Karinchaos(1IP, 3K), and Nic Enright(1IP) combine to go 3IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, and 6K. Yes, James Karinchak stuck out the side… *bring me my chaos man.*

#THE TWINS ARE A DISASTER
BOOK IT!!!
After the three run 10th inning Guardians walk-off miracle the Twins rage factor is unquantifiable and the rally sausage just spontaneously combusted to satisfy Naylor’s need for all the smoke. This team is really something special, my friends.
Tigers fan lettts gooooo
You’re welcome, tigers!! 🐯
LET’S GOOO
Great win! Fuck the Twins!
Enjoyable.
WILL THE JOSH NAYLOR HATERS PLEASE STAND UP
ROCCHIO HATERS REAL QUIET ALL THE SUDDEN
#SLAP HITTING SHIT GOBLINS
Huge shout out to the mvp’s of the game: Josh Naylor and the twins bullpen. Both doing what they are known to do
Beautiful. I love breaking twins fans hearts
Road to the World Series 2024
I LOVE OUR BEAUTIFUL VENEZUELAN MIFS🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪
TWINS FANS EATING GOBLIN SHIT TONIGHT
Brayan Rocchio makes me unfathomably erect
Let’s fucking goooooo
You can’t convince me that our guys don’t just get their rocks off by **TORTURING** the twins. They don’t just want to beat them, they want to break their fucking hearts.
I’ll admit: I thought the Guardos were toast when the Twins scored two in the 10th. I love eating my words. Great win tonight.
ROCCHIO IS THE GREATEST SHORT STOP IN THE LEAGUE I WILL NOT BE FIELDING FURTHER QUESTIONS DONT LOOK AT MY GAME DAY THREAD POSTS
GET IN HERE!!!
Holy shit, idk how my heart is gonna handle the Postseason when I’m already so much of a wreck even in THIS game.
What a game! The man, the myth, the legend, Josh Naylor! 2 HRs, first going 445 feet and the second going 391 feet. Go Guards!
Twins fan rage factor: infinite
CLEVELAND THIS IS FOR YOU!!!
-Rocchio probably
Brennan’s bro drawl is absolutely incredible
What Rocchio error? All I remember is a Rocchio walk off
Minnesota Twins rage factor is at UNPRECEDENTED levels, watching the Tigers gain wildcard ground on them off of the noodle-bat of Brayan Rocchio. You really do love to see it!
Imagine being a Twins fan 😂😂😂
NOT ONLY DID WE WIN BUT CARLOS CORREA LOST
🍻
– Detroit fans
####ALL YALL DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND THAT THIS TEAM IS ON A FUCKING MISSION
“I think we had enough of the Cleveland Guardians”
Or as Twins fans say when they win.
LEAGUE: FUCKED
6 game lead in the division if the Tigers hang on!
Today is a great day
I don’t have anyone to consistently watch ballgames with in real life, so I’m truly grateful to have this sub and everyone it in
thank you for making my Guardians fandom so much less lonely :’)
I hope everyone has noticed Rocchio’s growth over the season. Giving him all those ABs and looks and confidence has made him a much improved hitter and he’s always a great glove.
And mad respect for doing the postgame interview in english. Obviously he’s been working hard on that front too. Love having him on the team.
I agree. Go Guards!
Bless you boys from the bottom of my heart and from the bottom of every tigers fan. I knew you guys could do it. Now please finish them off tomorrow, you got this!!!!
Bryanan Rocchio is a video game character, I swear to god.
Until he fills up his “”FUCKING SEND HIM TO COLUMBUS!!!!” meter, he is completely infuriating.
But then the meter is full and he activated his special ability and wins the fucking game.
Yo know you’re a butthurt twins fan when you bring up Deshaun Watson lmao!!! The wins keep getting bigger…
Took my mom to the game tonight. Last time the Twins scored 20. This time I talked so much shit about Rocchio during that pitching change. I say it’s the reverse jinx. It’s totally not because I’m a hater. (That’s a lie, I’m a big hater, but I’m glad he showed me)
the cleveland guardians have been in first place for 166 days
For a good time, go check out the twins subreddit postgame thread
