after jacking donger after donger over the weekend, the twins squeak by the tigers with a mere 13 singles (leaving 12 on base) for their fourth win in a row, and gardy's 900th total. the bullpen held up, though not without creating some drama, and the twins denied the tigers' 8th attempt at a .500 record.
the twins are now, by virtue of teh suck of the central, only eight games back from the sox. i have a very bad feeling that they'll go on their standard july tear and hold on to all of their chips at the deadline in a foolish and misguided attempt at contention, and then crash back to earth in august empty-handed. but that's just my opinion.
