Twins back at home after a so-so road trip where beating the Red Sox was nice, but losing three close games to the Guardians was a gut punch. Next up, the surprisingly mediocre Baltimore Orioles who stumble into town with a 13-20 record.
Pablo Lopez on the mound for the Twins with his second start after coming back from IR. He's pitched solidly this year but would be great to see Lopez be even more effective now that the weather is turning warmer. Cade Povich for the O's and after a rough start to the season, he may be turning things around.
Finally, Royce Lewis makes his 2025 debut tonight. Looks like a DH stint to start off. Hopefully Royce is a tonic for the ass bats Twins seem to still wield these days.
Looks like a glorious night for baseball with first pitch at 6:40.
ALSO...
Game one of the NBA Western Conference semis tonight at Target Center. Wolves against Warriors. We can use this as the game log. Tip-off scheduled for 8:30ish(?)
Twins are on over-the-air tv tonight
Pablo carvin em up
He was real effective tonight, but not terribly efficient. About a hundred pitches, about sixty strikes over five frames won't cut it every time out.
Buxton with a RBI double CC with a bomb HR, thats a quality inning
Pablo - 11ks in 15 outs
But he is probably done for the day
Excellent pic selection, by the way, free.
Woooooow. Crazy ending to the IND-CLE game.
That's three straight crazy finishes, including the two last night
Far from ideal second quarter so far :/
That was one ugly half of Woofs basketball.
Listening on the radio on the way home from Target Field really harshed my buzz. Bouncing between a 13 and 19 point deficit the whole ride.
