A split in New Britain. Beloit loses, but moves closer to a playoff spot. Vote for Snappy!

So, Thome got all of that one, eh?
I absolutely loved their show at the Fine Line back in March (although I was bummed I couldn't find DK). Their drummer was like Russell Brand except if Russell Brand was amusing to watch.

GO TWINS!
Padre covered for me - I'll pay it forward.
Big night offensively for both clubs as they combined for 31 hits. Blackburn gets the W and the Twins got 3 homeruns (Willingham, Span, Plouffe!). Revere, Doumit and Plouffe all went 3-5, Carroll 3-4 and Mauer 2-4 with a walk. Dozier was 0-5 but committed no errors.
JI JIM was 2-4 with 2 RBI.
Burton, Perk-n-play, and Capps all pitched clean innings after Dunce gave up 3 runs in the 6th (that mess was cleaned up by Burnett).
The Twins are now 7-3 in their last 10 and 6-1 at home since being swept by Detroit at the end of May.
Another shutout for the Red Wings. Six strikeouts in six batters for Michael Tonkin. And, a Dan Rams Grand Slam!
Dr.chop and I found a house. Now we wait to see if we're selected to occupy it.
