I keep trying to see if they can, but I'm not sure these guys can ever make their live performance sound like their records do. The new record's pretty good though.

Loading... Let's win this base ball game!
Had a tiny break in the middle, but done with a long 10 days of travel. Definitely worth it.

A late home run drops the E-Twins. The GCL Twins hit a couple of home runs, but it's not enough. Prelander Berroa had a good game.
Today's the birthday of one of my two best college friends. Now we don't go out of our way to talk even on birthdays. Nothing happened; we just have full lives. It still sucks.

Carl Pohlad, of course, was the owner of the Twins for many years.
Twins in the beginning of a long stretch of games against sub-500 teams, with very few teams more sub-500 than the Chicago White Sox. The third game of a rare five game tilt against the Pale Hose has Gibby once again trying to get keep the Twins in the playoff hunt. Lucas Giolito up for the Sox. He’s one of the prospects received in the Adam Eaten trade last December and the apparently the Southsiders want to see what they got.
This will be featured in my upcoming Father Knows Best posting but the eldest now has a real job working for Guaranteed Rate Mortgage in Chicago, ironically enough 5 blocks from Wrigley Field. I am hoping that next year we can secure some sweet stadium sponsor tix and I will go down and check out “New Comisky.” Until then I will be enjoying the view of Guaranteed Rate Field from my Barcalounger.
The humidity was over 90% here this morning, but it's starting to look like we won't get any rain. Apparently the humidity was also the reason Kepler-Różycki was not in the lineup for the second half of the doubleheader last night.
Let's stay hydrated out there.
ByungHo Park hits his twelfth homer. A fine game by Zack Littell. Royce Lewis hits his first Class A home run. A walk is as good as a hit for the E-Twins and the GCL Twins. Samuel Vasquez has the big hit for the DSL Twins.
