Oh, the spoiler feature doesn't work in the headline.
Twins 5, Rays 12 (The 7 runs they scored in the 8 + 9th innings were enough to win without the other 5 they scored)
LP: A. Burnett WP: The other team.
Twins record 38-47, 8.0 games out of first (3 games ahead of the Royals(!)/small victories/)
Save? not.

Oy. I'm glad that I watched this game while I was in the studio because at least I accomplished something of value on my own. Frankie wasn't sharp, but the offense picked him up. Sinkingship was called on to relieve F-bomb, and pitched quite well surrendering just one hit and one walk while striking out 3 in two innings pitched. After Mijares stuck out the dude who he was asked to strike out gardy decided it would be a good idea to bring in Burnett. Previously, I had been under the impression that the only time it was a good idea to bring in Burnett was when the other team had already won the game, but I guess I was wrong about that. Alex's line for the day reads like the script for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, he gave up 4 hits, a walk, and 4 earned runs over one and a third innings pitched. Awesome. Dumatrait came on for the ninth and expanded the suck by securing two fast outs and then letting some dude named Long"donger'oria jack a three run shot. Boo.

Cuddy had an allstar day at the dish, and TK thinks that Joe Mauer shouldn't be a catcher. That about sums up this stinker.

I was all set to link to the Mill City Museum, but they're closed because the man is holding them down. Boo.
