  1. Huh- the Twins players out there for defense look strangely like the players I saw play last night. Are they batting in the same order?

  2. you would think that a big time All Star in Jimmy Rollins can get his name pronounced correctly by Bert Blyleven. 'Jimmy Rawlings'

  3. PJ Walters is getting a bit unlucky with those hits. Pierre hit it just out of the reach of the 2Bman, and Pence hit it off the end of the bat, but landed in front of Span.

    1. We'll find out when he goes on the DL after another short start (after skipping his next one of course).

      1. We'll get an idea of the general area of his body that is hurting, but we won't know what really is wrong until he has surgery at least two months from now.

    1. I read Gardy's lips during the conversation on the mound. He say 'you gotta be honest with me' at least twice.

      1. I really feel for P.J. He's a fringe MLB pitcher and he's finally getting a legit shot at a rotation spot and then he gets hurt. At least his paycheck is guaranteed.

  8. We're all going to laugh about this when the Twins score eight runs in the bottom of the first.

  20. What up OGs? I just got back and am packing for my trip tomorrow! What did I miss?

  21. Revere really seems to be hitting the ball solidly these days. It would be awesome if he could stay like this.

  25. Trevor Plouffe's OPS+ entering the game (not including his HR): 123.
    Cuddiier's two best seasons: 124 and 125.

  27. I'm getting over a stomach bug that waylaid me for a couple days, but Mrs. Twayn made her chicken parmesan tonight and I'm suddenly feeling a bit peckish again.

    1. Did an open water swim at Square Lake on Tues in prep for upcoming Tri.
      I think too much lake water in the sinuses. Quite stuffed up.

  35. After some debate, I've decide to go back to Twins announcers. The idiot you know is better than the idiot you don't know, as they say.

        1. Go to the MLB.com videos and watch it, spooky. Over the batter's eye in center field. It takes your breath away.

          1. I loved the standing ovation for JI JIM. That was cool of the fans in Target, and deserved.

  37. Now mlb.tv has decided to crap out on my entirely. Well played, internet, well played.

      1. The picture still sucks, and it's frozen on me once already, but I'm still calling this a win.

    1. Come on, somebody was supposed to chime in with "You bastards!"

      Screw you guys, I'm going home.

  57. Well, that ending sucked. After the Twins got within a run and had runners at second and third and no outs in the seventh, Twins batters finished the game going 0-for-10 with six strikeouts. From unstoppable to totally whiffable.

  58. Good effort from the boys tonight. They simply dug too big a hole early. We'll just have to settle for 126-36!
