Time for the Twins offense to wake up. Four runs on eight hits in the previous two games.
Time for Santana to start pitching. From the FourLetter:
The veteran right-hander holds the majors' highest ERA (9.12) among qualifying pitchers since Aug. 3, and has lost four straight decisions while Minnesota has dropped five of the last six games he's started. During his six-start swoon, Santana has failed to escape the third inning twice.
Opposing pitcher will be recently recalled rookie Lance McCullers (pitching in AA last week).
A Snapper mow'em down inning! Sort of.
Two innings. Zero runs. Best start of the season!
Pickoffs are fun
That was a fun trip through the order.
The Twins have 1 run on 1 hit, and the inning they scored the run did not have the hit.
Nice work by Santana!
9 strikeouts by a Twins pitcher
6 shutout innings by a Twins pitcher
whoa
Astros help with strikeout numbers
NUNEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that was a blast! holy cows
Sano with a rally-killing two-run home run.
Let it Sano!
He hit it under the catwalks
I've only been watching for the last couple of innings. Glad I showed up.
There goes the shutout
its been a while since Chris Carter hit one 700 feet against a Twins pitcher
oh crap
another series win!
Surpassed 2011 through 2013 win totals.
Oh man, I hope the Twins do not go 0-for-September.
There are four games in October so they would still have a chance to surpass last year!
