Looks like we've got a long series of late games in front of us, you guys. Don't forget to once again brew yourself an extra cup.
As we've recently discussed, not a whole lot of bright spots in our view these days, and I certainly don't have any sunshine to sell you. Let's just keep our heads down, finish up this series without embarrassing ourselves, and go somewhere where the smell of sewage isn't so fresh.

Vargas at DH. He better get a lot of PAs through the end of the season.
I don't think that will be much of a problem as long as he's with the Twins.
2-0 A's. GOSO.
Pi-ohno
good time to get a hit and lots of runs.
its early, but perfect game alert. Lester is dealing.
Jinxed it. O.k. took 20 minutes.
a hit!
Twins came within an inch of tying the game in the sixth on Dozier's near homer. That's the way the ball has bounced for them this year, it seems.
