Oswaldo Arcia and Tyler Duffey have good games, but it's not enough. Brett Lee's complete game is not enough either. Mat Batts has an excellent game, and it is enough. Zach Tillery goes Batts one (inning) better. The E-Twins get blown out. The GCL Twins do the blowing out. No report from the DSL.

Game 82: Twins at Royals
I've spent a grand total of 7 waking hours inside over the past three days, and as such, haven't watched much baseball. I won't see today's game either. Hopefully the fellas can start the 2nd half of the season the way they finished off the first half, beating the Kansas City Royals at their house.
We finally get the chance to see the Twins' big off-season acquisition as Ervin Santana has been reinstated following his 80-game PED's suspension. Santana spent 2013 with the Royals, going 9-10 with a 3.24 ERA. Trevor May has been sent to the bullpen to make room in the rotation for Santana.
Opposition pitcher is Danny Duffy - 0-4 in his past five starts, with an 8.14 ERA and a combined 2 runs of offense in support...hey, I'll take another one like that!

Minor Details: Games of July 3
Jose Berrios made his season debut in Rochester, but Michael Tonkin was the awesome pitcher in the game. Jorge Polanco had a good day for the Lookouts, but no one else did. It was Kanzler v. Voit in the Miracle game. Not much offense for the Kernels. A walkoff single for the GCL Twins. Yeltsin and Zaino lead the DSL Twins.
