2014 Game 81: Kansas City vs. Minnesota

Barbeque Ribs vs. Lutefisk
Strip Steak vs. Tater Tot Hot Dish
One Super Bowl Loss vs. Four Super Bowl Losses
All The Children Are Above Average vs. Everything's Up To Date
The Walker vs. Nelson-Atkins
Fountains vs. Lakes

Hard to say who gets the nod tonight. The Twins finally won a 1-run game, so maybe some regression to the mean in that category has started. Chairman Mauer brings a 10-game hitting streak back to Target Field, the boys are playing competitive baseball and there are enough reasons to think this team is not a lost cause if they can just keep their most productive players healthy and on the field for an extended period.

Yohan Pino (0-1, 6.30 ERA) takes the Target Field mound for the Twins tonight, while Kansas City counters with southpaw Danny Duffy (4-7, 2.69 ERA). Play ball!

2014 Game 73: Sox @ Twins

Hey everybody! It's been a while. Ahem.

A newly rejuvenated Kevin Correia takes the mound for the Twins today. Some of what's transpired over the past couple of starts is probably smoke and mirrors, but as long as the Twins aren't going to bring up either of the pitchers we really want to see (no offense, Mr. Pino), the pitchers we've got right now might as well not suck. As such, I'm happy with any positive steps Correia makes, if only to augment his trade value a bit.

Andre Rienzo takes the mound for the Sox. He has been pretty horrible this year so far (lots of home runs, lots of walks, not all that many strikeouts), and he looks like the sort that the Twins could feast on. He's one of only two Brazillian players, though, so he's got that going for him.

I foresee a high scoring game in which the Twins manage to pull away in the 5th inning.

Go Twins!
