Rainout Tuesday, this can be game log for the doubleheader.
Wow, what a difference a week makes. Twins on a 8-game win streak that basically saved their season and made everyone excited for summer baseball. Pitching has definitely been the the difference maker, both starters and relievers, but it does look like the ass bats have been put away for a while too. Twins have barely made ground in the standings with the win streak but nothing insurmountable. Also makes upcoming series against Royals, Tigers, and Guardians that much more fun. Bring it!
The scuffling Orioles up next and they just seem like a tired beat down team. Which is too bad, they've been one the fun baseball stories these past few years. Simeon Woods Richardson for the Twins, Cade Povich for the O's. I see the streak hitting 9 games tonight.
First Pitch at 11:05a. Second Game 30 minutes after the end of game one.
Bad bottom of the third but great top of the fourth.
Christian Vasquez home run is something I'd thought I would not see this season
Team just went over 100 BB allowed recently (last to do so); doesn't give you carte blanche to dole out free passes, Bailey.
When is Royce supposed to come off the MIA?
Buxton is fast.
That's a good first leg of today's quintet.
Phillies topped the Cards, so Twins are now sole owners of MLB's longest current win streak and tied for the longest this season. They also have the 3rd best run differential in the AL right now.
