GO TWINS!

This one is better than the first one I selected.
June 19, 2013: Game Seven
The Spurs and Heat are going to a seventh game after by far the best game of the series (and most series). Let's just avoid a blowout in the end, alright?
Happy Birthday–June 19
Eddie Cicotte (1884)
Lou Gehrig (1903)
Bill Swift (1908)
Don Gutteridge (1912)
Archie Ware (1918)
Chet Boak (1935)
Bob Aspromonte (1938)
Isao Harimoto (1940)
Jerry Reuss (1949)
Duane Kuiper (1950)
Jim Slaton (1950)
Johnnie LeMaster (1954)
Doug Mientkiewicz (1974)
Alex Prieto (1976)
Dustan Mohr (1976)
Bruce Chen (1977)
Archie Ware was a star first baseman in the Negro Leagues.
Infielder Chet Boak played for the Twins’ AAA affiliate, the Syracuse Chiefs, in 1961, but does not appear to have actually been a part of the Twins’ organization, as records show him belonging to the expansion Washington Senators. One assumes he was loaned to the Twins’ for part of that season.
Isao Harimoto is the only person to have 3,000 hits in Japanese baseball.
Game 67: Twins vs. White Sox
Another Tuesday Another Pelfrey (3-6, 6.12 ERA) vs. Axelrod (3-4, 4.26 ERA)
So the Twins and the White Sox both stink, although the Twins stink a game and a half better. Hopefully, Pelfrey can continue with his recent decent pitching tonight, although I would still prefer to see someone like a Kyle Gibson starting games for the Twins, but that might just be me.
I don't really know anything about Axelrod. A quick look at his numbers show a guy who is meh to crappy, and who's not striking out as many guys this year as last. So that's good news for the Twins. Hopefully, the Twins can add a little space between them and the dumpster.
Minor Details: Games of 6/17
The Vanimal throws a seven-inning complete game. A big day for Antoan Richardson. Fort Myers wins in the ninth.
WGOM Fitness: 18 June 2013, Tennis
Last night I played tennis with a 15-year-old girl (my wife's cousin), and was beaten pretty soundly. Continue reading WGOM Fitness: 18 June 2013, Tennis
