game x, twins @ tigers
Deduno takes on Fister. This game is sort of a 'must win' for the Tigres, so i'd love to see them lose it. We'kre coming to the bitter end here. It's tremendously unlikely that the Hammer is going to gain another spot on th countup, so about the only things we have left are Mauer's hopeful batting title, and the chance to spoil other teams' playoff chances.
That's cool, too, I guess.

Porcello
The Twins need one more win in the remaining twelve games in order to match last year's win total. They could top 70 wins if they actually finish well, but that's just not going to happen.
Game 150: Minnesota at Cleveland
Morning game! I didn't see a game log, so here you go. If I ran baseball, they'd stagger the starting times so there'd be a game being played live twenty-four hours a day. Those 3:00 a.m. start times might make some of the players upset, of course.

Twins v. Indians
Hendriks v. McAllister
Beer v. Nukes
The Chairman v. Stribbies
We all know which side we're on.
GO TWINS!

Minnesota: Walters (2-4, 6.70 ERA)
Cleveland: Huff (1-0, 0.00 ERA)
My fellow Twins fans, our long Midwestern nightmare is almost over. The baseball season works; our great schedule is a list of games and not of men. Here the umpires rule. But there is a higher Power, by whatever name we honor Him, who ordains not only righteousness but the starting rotation, not only justice but the bullpen.
As we bind up the internal wounds of the 2012 season, more painful and more poisonous than those of the mid ninties, let us restore the golden rule to our baseball process, and let strikeout pitchers purge the batters box of walks and home runs.
Before closing, I ask again for your prayers, for Joe Mauer and his family. May our former MVP, who brought joy to millions, find it for himself. May God bless and comfort his wonderful fans and family, whose love and loyalty will forever be a shining legacy to all who bear the lonely burdens of the label Jebus.

Dick'n'Bert talked about how great it is that the Twins have their own park and not having to play early games on Saturday. So the Twins then play.. and early game on Saturday.

Confession:
Last year I watched over 100 Twins games. This year? Maybe 10. I still check the box scores every night. Am I a fair weather fan? Maybe. I guess I don't care. But I'm not going to sink a bunch of time into something that isn't bringing me a heck of a lot of joy.
Go Twins.
