i don't have much for you guys, but thankfully this game didn't warrant much. didn't see it. kept a very wandering eye on gameday for the first few innings, but that was (mercifully) it. just a couple points to note:
the twins have scored 6 runs in 4 games this year
the twins have tied the franchise worse start of 0-4 in `69 and `81 this year
the twins have yet to, in general, not suck this year
please note that the "When will teh Suck End?" tag was already stored in the .org database.

I have been writing game logs on Tuesdays for the last three seasons. This is the first year there has not been a game on a Tuesday, all star games excluded, since I started.

I guess I let my spring-fever induced optimism get the better of me. I should have tempered expectations a little more. I thought that after six months of patiently waiting and what appeared to be a pretty good spring training performance, I might actually witness real competence from the Twins over the weekend. On the bright side, the pre-season focus on defense seems to be paying off, with the possible exception of Danny Valencia. But the pitching was only middlin' and the offense sorely disappointed, to say the least.
