I don't recall ever watching that much live baseball in one day. A Twins win would have made it less exhausting.

I thought that Diamond deserved a better outcome than he got, and that perhaps a flip of the game one and game two lineups might have had a better outcome. Or not.

Chris Herrmann had a nice day. Watching Deduno pitch was weird. He has more command of his secondary stuff than his fastball, but those other pitches aren't particularly good. The idea that a pitcher needs to pitch off of his fastball really has heightened stakes with him on the mound. What was crazy was that he couldn't even find the catcher, let alone the plate, on his warmup throws during every single inning break. I think he dirted like 7/8th of his pitches.
