Taking Twins

Chad Green runs out of gas in the third as the Twins load the bases with one out. The Yankees go to the bullpen for the second time.

The Twins are doing a good job taking pitches on the edge. It strikeouts me as the difference between this team and the Twins teams that lost to the Yankees in the aughts. That was more of a hacking team; these Twins appear to be much more selective. Right now, that his helping them give the Yankees a run for their money. New York leads 4-3 in the top of the third, but that lead is threatened.

Update: Byron Buxton grounds into a force play at second, and the Twins tie the game at four.

Update: Jason Castro strikes out to end the inning.
