2013 Game 35: Pale Hosers at Twins

May 13th, 2013, at 6:00 pm 112 LTEs , , , ,

I used to love to hate the White Sox, but that fiery passion has cooled considerably in the past few years. Now I just like to dislike them. For this I blame Ozzie Guillen, who somehow against all odds and expectations brought a new level of civility and respect to the formerly fierce and [...]

Francisco Liriano was probably my favorite post-Santana pitcher, Kevin Slowey excepted. If Johan brought me back to baseball after taking a couple of years off Frankie made me pretty nuts about baseball again. 2006, I think we can all agree, was just about the most magical season for [...]

So the Pale Hosers are leading the AL Central and the Twins are, mercifully, out of the cellar at last (thank you very much Kansas City, Cleveland with the assist). We’d all like that situation to be reversed, of course. After all, the White [...]

Twitter is abuzz late the Saturday evening as the Twins trade Fransisco Liriano to the White Sox (of all teams) for minor leaguers Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernadez.

Escobar is a SS and Hernandez is a LHP

When you search the internet for images, you get a lot different results with “white socks” than you do with “white sox”. But you might want to set your search engine filters accordingly if you search on “white stockings”.

The last time the Twins have lost a series against Chicago was May 19-21, 2009. There was a two game split on May 11-12, 2010, but there’s no doubt the Twins would have won the series if given the chance. Overall, the Twins are .732 against the White Sox from [...]
