Game 48: twins @ mariners

Winning streak!

We might not get a whole lot of these this season, so it's worth getting excited over them, no matter how seemingly insignificant.

You know what would go nice with that winning streak? A long winning streak.

Hughes tries to make that happen tonight. Wade Miley tries to stop him, but other than having a pretty full beard in his bbref photo, I'm not convinced. The Twins weren't supposed to win last night, and they dominated, surely they can take on Grizzly Adams and his 4.51 FIP, right?

  1. Mauer... home run to left center. That's the power stroke we haven't consistently seen in the past. Nice!

  2. I really want to watch more dongerjacks, but Niblet wakes up at 5:50 no matter what day of the week it is.

    1. I dont know about anyone else, but I really really really love this gif.

  3. I ended up going out to the bar but not being near the tv and jsut caught the ending of the game. Holy balls.

    also MAUER PAUER

    DANCE PARTY

    AHHHH

  4. Something happened and we got some more extra base home run hits! I'm not sure I quite understand what happened on the last play, but maybe I'll see a highlight someplace. At any rate, we're still on track for 128-34!
