      Those seats should be sold as obstructed view. It happens but I would think they would just not put seats there myself.

        I'd buy those seats for cheap/obstructive view price. The best place to be is the bar right behind homeplate, and that drink rail is open to anyone. Just go stand at the drink rail in the bar, so I can be 4 feet away from liquor and stand mid-way up directly behind the plate.

          I want the Twins to have a good series in New York. Win at least one game. If they can have a great series (win two games) I'll be impressed. I still cannot believe we didn't win a game against them last year. They credit their season turning around last year when they walked off three times against us...ugh.

            That's the pain of it. 3 walk-offs. No walk-offs for the Yanks and one win would make me a happy camper.

                  Twins are soooooooooooooooooooooo shitty with the bases loaded.

                  Walk a run in.
                  Double play ball to the pitcher.
                  Whats next?

                  Edit: A SO with 2 on. Ugh.

                  Teams are going to start loading the bases on purpose to ensure we don't score.

                    That pitch was SICK.

                      Depends how they count I guess.

                      3 on for walk, is 2 LO
                      3 on for dp is 3 LO
                      2 on for SO is 2 LO

                      Leadoff hit in 2nd or 3rd inning, means 3 more LO for the 3 outs.

                      So yeah I can see that.

                        I saw it that way too after I looked at their stats a bit more closely. imho it should be left on base after 3 out...

                          um... I think you're calculating that wrong. A walk doesn't count for LOB as far as I know...

                            He's referring to the site I was referring to. They (MLB.com) had 11 LOB for the Twins after 3, which was preposterous given how many runners they had at the time. Clearly they were counting any runner on base that didn't score during any plate appearance regardless if it it were the 3rd out of the inning, which goes against the standard accounting.
