When do they take Green out of the game?
Jeff Sullivan
5:36
Guessing they might try to take him through the third
Travis Sawchik
5:37
Early returns: 75.4% of people like the one-game wild card ... That's too bad

Sorry Travis, you are terrific but the drama of this one game is unbeatable and does not need changing.
Travis Sawchik
5:38
But in the KBO, best-of-two format, each game would still be an elimination game
(the first game would just be for the lower seed)

5:38
how many people picked the yankees going to the bullpen in 1st?
Jeff Sullivan
5:38
It was 0% before Green came in!
Andre
5:39
Yankees and Twins beat writers suspect Berrios will be coming out of the bullpen
Jeff Sullivan
5:39
I would love it
(If the circumstances are right, of course)

Obvious selection bias on the one-game wild card poll: you're polling people who care enough about the one-game wild card game to join this live chat.
Travis Sawchik

People would tune for our expanded wild card chat
Jeff Sullivan

And here come the Yankees. Turns out both teams get to hit in every inning
5:41
If that isn't Aaron Judge, a normal player pops out to second with that swing
Mike
5:41
Conspiracy: Travis is just trying to extend the playoffs because he gets bored in the offseason
Travis Sawchik
5:42
Well, I do miss live baseball ... But the KBO format wouldn't have to expand the playoffs. Could do a double-headers which would be so great
JTT
5:42
Is this game the worst DH utilization in post season history? Ellsbury  at DH and robbie grossman batting 9th.
Jeff Sullivan
5:42
Some AL teams would do better playing in an NL ballpark than others

I am here to read about Travis' anecdotes about his basement. Get your facts right!
AdamZ
5:42
I don't think I can name a single person in the Twins bullpen.
Jeff Sullivan
5:43
Trevor Hildenberger!
Travis Sawchik
5:43
I wish Jotcast had a periscope option ... could do a live feed
Jeff Sullivan
5:43
He's the most interesting one
Jason Castro with the rare catch made on top of the on-deck circle
Travis Sawchik
5:43
Time to eliminate on-deck circles!
Jeff Sullivan
5:43
Agree!
Andrew
5:43
TV guys talking about pitch count for Santana...isn't that completely irrelevant in tonight's game?
Jeff Sullivan
5:44
Only kind of. The Twins bullpen is not very good or deep
Travis Sawchik
5:44
It's like have an oil slick on the field
Jeff Sullivan
5:44
Adrian Beltre was on to something
Travis Sawchik
5:45
Is Santana really sitting 96-97?
Jeff Sullivan
5:45
Gameday thinks he's up there. Must be adrenaline
Seff Jullivan
5:46
Just saw this on TV: Jason castro has painted his fingernails bright yellow
Travis Sawchik
5:46
Kind of fun/interesting to see the situation affecting Severino and Santana
Jeff Sullivan
5:46
Catchers do that pretty often so that pitchers can better see the signs
Look at that! We're tied!
5:47
That would somehow be Didi Gregorius' 26th home run of the damn season
