As I am sure will be mentioned every inning, the temperatures have finally matched the date. It is 67 degrees outside as I write this. Since it was 45 this morning, I dressed for that, so of course I'm going to be a bit warm waiting for the bus this evening. Thankfully it will be in the shade and windy.
Oh, yeah, the Twins. Nine wins after 18 games is more than I would have expected. Hicks going from a black hole to η Carinae A, roughly, helps; though it didn't help the Twins. Since ending his strikeout streak, he has struck out only twice while walking eight times. Unfortunately, he only tallied three hits.
What I also wouldn't have expected after 18 games: Mauer and Morneau have played in every game, and only them.

It’s so nice to be down here where it’s warm and nice out instead of in gloomy snowy Minnesota. I think the long Winter really started to get to me in weird ways and I did some things that I kind of regret. It was a really dark time, maybe even darker than the last dark time, but it's good to be feeling happy again. When Mr. Ryan called to tell me that I was ready to start playing baseball again I was so excited, but it was tough to break the news to Cassandra that I was returning to baseball. She got real angry and called me a sellout and a drone and that she always knew I was a yuppie loser. She also said some other stuff that I don't want to talk about.

A big night for Byron Buxton. Five hits for Doug Bernier. Sano hits his eighth.
What are you listening to? I might've had something to write, but then HPR puked up his ballpark fare in his bed and I sat up with him to make sure he got everything else into the bucket.
