I watched this game. The whole thing. And I totally spaced on the recap. Because it is a painful thing to do at this moment in the season.

Hicks had four hits. That was cool. Mountie hit one on a line into the right field seats. That was nice.

Other things were not good. Thielbar gave up a run so Gardy will probably never use him again. Deduno still makes me wonder if he is an OK pitcher or not(trick question because on this team he is the ace). Tropicana Field looks like an unpleasant place to watch a ball game. The turf has weird stains like a dorm room throw rug.

All in all not a great game. Alas there is another game today to hopefully cleanse the palate. As Slowey would say, we can't help but continue to watch the Sisyphean effort that is the 2013 Minnesota Twins' season.
