So how about those Twins? Two in a row! Three out of four! Four out of six! We're making our charge for the pennant!
Well, maybe not. But even in a lost season, it's nice to see them win. Maybe they'll make it three in a row. Michael Pineda goes for the Twins, Luis Garcia for the Trashstros. Go Twins!
