Yankees scored 2 in the top of the first. The A's scored two in the bottom of the third. Nothing since then and now in the bottom of the 15th. Far enough into the game that the dregs of the bullpen might succeed in ending it soon.
Correia lets one go through the 5 hole
Carroll ALMOST hit a HR.
I guess it would have been short, but that might have been the hardest ball he has hit all year
Dick'n'Bert mention Lee's inability to win any games last year. It's as if wins aren't a good reflection of pitcher ability.
Seems like a good place to put my first post on this place from a smartphone. I can't wait for my first confusing autocorrect!
Really? Dozier covers second instead of shortstop with Delmon batting? Smalley even agrees with the silliness of that.
it seems like the Twins always have the 2b dude cover and the hit and runs work
Anthony Swarzak is going to see action in this game.
Perfect game alert!
18th inning and now Rivera enters the game.
And promptly loses the game.
Ha! Well, a memorable game for a HOF career, I guess
Ben Revere loves hitting at Target Field
I think thats hit #7 this series
Mauer ends the no-hitter.
this is game 59 for Joe Mauer. That was hit 79
so many errors....
Catcher to catcher to catch the runner.
Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust, got him at the plate...by 30 feet.
So it's Ace vs Ace night, eh?
The Twins' first frame is gold
The hardest score to hold.
Chick only lets one score,
But they cannot plate more.
Then Chick subsides to Clete.
So Eden sank to grief.
So day goes down to night.
The Twins give up the fight.
Twins batters suck.
WTF.
looks like Cliff Lee is one his way to a one hitter.
speaking of Philly, just booked roundtrip to Philly for mid-Sept. for Mrs. Runner and myself -- her brother and S-I-L have a house on the Atlantic in Ocean City rented
Cliff Lee is awesome. Mauer is more awesome.
Holy wang, how do the Phillies have 12 hits and only one run?
I just knew Delmon had something to do with it. It looked like Young has been taking running lessons from him.
why aren't we bunting the heck out of Lee? we know how much he likes that
Because if they do, everyone will start remembering that we all miss Carlos Gomez.
Aw, man, I miss him...
Haha, watching Bosh be completely terrible in the playoffs has been a joy.
oh. my. goodness.
Runs even more awesome.
IN PLAY, RUN(S)!!!
WALKS WILL HAUNT
How is Duensing gonna vulture this win?
He'd better not harsh Swarzak's buzz.
Burton managed the blown save quickly enough.
ummm Burton???
Burton gets the BS. No more runs please.
Then bring in Dunce for Howard and proceed to win.
OK now no more runs please.
BOOM, bitch
Okay, so, tie the game in the bottom of the eighth. Then Duensing pitches the top of the ninth and then walk-off.
Well there's been a Perk save each night this week also, so I'm fine scoring two right now.
A Burton vulture's just as good in my book.
I hope Thielbar continues to be good solely for the fact that his parents went to high school with my dad.
Why you swing, Chairman? 🙁
Hellhounds and artillery to the face.
No Twins lead can stay.
As you may have noticed, Cliff Lee is pretty good. It's certainly no disgrace to lose to him. On the plus side, the Twins won't face him again this year. So, we'll just have to settle for 128-34!
Okay, don't give Cliff credit for this, we had a lead when he left the game.
True, but we had scored two runs. I think Lee gets some credit for that.
Besides, when did people start taking my comments at the end of the game log seriously?
Two runs is a win with our starting staff!
You mean they aren't going to go 128-34?????
Well, that part's serious, of course. I meant the other stuff!

Minnesota Twins' Ron Gardenhire, Charlie Manuel survived '87 Portland Beavers
neat article about a bad baseball team

Plays like this.
Delmon Young is very unclutch
I just knew Delmon had something to do with it. It looked like Young has been taking running lessons from him.
