April 19, 2014: Use a Pen, Sideshow Bob
So, yeah, that's what I'm watching right now.
2014 Game 16: Royals 5, Twins 0
What a great play by Brian Dozier!
2014 Game 16: Minnesota Twins at Kansas City Royals
Ricky Nolasco
v
Jason Vargas
Since Nolasco did so well last time against the Royals, the schedule makers kindly arranged for him to face the Royals again. The Royals are coming off a sweep of the Astros, but anyone could do that (except the Yankees).
BR's SRS score has the Twins tops in the division with a 0.6. I'm sure it will improve greatly after the 149-game win streak finishes.
Speedy Ortiz – Tiger Tank
I have no idea what this is (at work), but we need a video, so here you go.
