Show Notes

Despite injuries to Carlos Correa and Royce Lewis, the Minnesota Twins go to Cincinnati and take two from the playoff-seeking Reds, and they do so with a dramatic comeback in Game 3. Combined with some help from the Kansas City Royals, the Twins' magic number to clinch the AL Central Division is now down to one, and by the time they take the field again they might have already clinched. David and Dan, reunited after a couple episodes apart, try not to get too far ahead of themselves, though David still insists the Twins could earn the No. 2 seed and avoid the Wild Card Round. Dan is not convinced that both the supposed home run robberies in this series actually counted as such, and he is salty about the way Jayce Tingler handled Lewis in Game 2. David wonders who might be the third starter in a playoff series while also maintaining that Byron Buxton is a huge question mark heading into the playoffs. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
