Brutal Twins Defense Leads To Worse Bad NRFI Beat Of The Year

Everyone who bet no runs in the first inning (also known as NRFI) of the Guardians-Twins game today must have thought they were home free.

With two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning, Guardians cleanup hitter Franmil Reyes hit a lazy pop up into right field with a runner on first.

Even though the ball appeared to be a clear third out off the bat, nobody on the Twins hustled over, and it ended up landing in no-mans land in right field.

The runner from first hustled in to beat the throw into home plate, and NRFI bettors everywhere cringed.

If you had the NRFI in Twins-Guardians… my god

As NRFI bettors will tell you, it can lead to some of the best and most beats you’ll ever have, and today was a clear instance where the latter took place.

Later in the game, the Twins took the lead after a red-hot Carlos Correa hit another home run in the fifth inning.

At that point, though, NRFI bettors had already tuned out — and probably won’t be getting over that loss any time soon.
