You know, because the first one wasn't (bad/awesome*) enough.
Hochevar vs. De Vries (third best starter in our rotation right now, or fourth best? Either way, it's truly saddening)
* circle one, I'm building stairs, and won't get to edit this before the second game

Diamond
Sanchez has been quite terrible this year. Diamond has been quite awesome this year. Piece of cake.
Aaron Hicks has a good game. A big first inning for the Miracle. Junior Subero pitches like Senior Subero.

We would also like to wish a happy birthday to spookymilk’s wife and to hungry joe's son.
As if it wasn't bad enough (given recent events) that Sour Cream has a pool party to go to today, it also denies the Milkmaid the ability to enjoy her birthday at home. I'm at work all day and the pool party is from shortly before I get home to hours later, so it's a pretty lame birthday for the wife. Well, them's the breaks when you have kids who have friends.
I have been spending some time in the 60's vaults this week and have dug up some pretty neat video.

The video quality is the only thing that keeps this from being a 12.

Next Wednesday, the Twins will have completed half of the season. One of the things I love about baseball is the sheer number of games. It's more fun when the number of losses stops climbing so quickly, but with so many games we can ignore all of the crappy games and have plenty of great ones to remember.
With so many games however, it soon becomes expected that there's a game tomorrow. We still have 87 games left, but the day that ends is in sight.
Minnesota is 30-44, fifth in the AL Central, ten games behind the White Sox. The Twins have lost two consecutive games and are 5-5 in their last ten games.
Rochester is 37-43, sixth in the IL North, eight and a half games behind Lehigh Valley and Pawtucket. The Red Wings have lost one consecutive game and are 5-5 in their last ten games.
New Britain is 42-35, third in the EL Eastern, two games behind Trenton. The Rock Cats are 7-3 in their last ten games and have won one consecutive game.
Fort Myers is 3-5 in the second half, tied for fourth in the FSL South, two games behind Jupiter. The Miracle has lost two consecutive games. Overall, Fort Myers is 31-44.
Beloit is 4-3 in the second half, tied for second in the ML Western, one game behind Burlington. The Snappers have lost two consecutive games. Overall, Beloit is 43-34.
Elizabethton is 7-3, tied for first with Greeneville in the AL West. The Twins have won four consecutive games.
The GCL Twins are 4-4, tied for second in the GCL South, a half game behind the Orioles. The Twins have won one consecutive game.
The DSL Twins are 9-13, tied for seventh in the B. C. B. C., four and a half games behind the Reds. The Twins have lost five consecutive games and are 3-7 in their last ten games.
A big comeback in New Britain. Another big win for Elizabethton. The GCL Twins finally get to play!
Was sick from work yesterday, heading to the in-laws in Glenwood today. Might not be around much: have a good weekend.
