Any word on whether we are getting a rainout today? Stuck at work and can't use my tickets, unless they postpone. Keeping my fingers crossed for more rain throughout the day.

Per Twitter, game still on as scheduled.

It looks like the heavy stuff will be past the Cities by gametime. Right now in Rochester, it is pouring!

[glunn]

We (the fans) could use a day (or even a week) off.

Pavano throwing batting practice -- two runs in the first inning. Please let it RAIN.

[Ultima Ratio]

Way to swing at ball 4 and GDP on a 3-1 count there Joey.

Ya that was a piss poor at bat from Mauer. He's been chasin to many pitches lately and Willingham has watched too many. Cmon Twins

I fear that our only salvation today would be a rainout.

[Vegeta]

Morneau's been in beast mode lately

Morneau's been in beast mode lately

If only he and Mauer/Willingham could get hot at the same time.

[Vegeta]

Lets see how Pavano does. He looked good in the 2nd. Hopefully he can settle down and find his groove

[Top Gun]

I expect the Twins will win today.

[Vegeta]

I hope so, Need to win this series

[Ultima Ratio]

Morneau comes to the plate again (good) with no one on (bad).

Got to lay off that low change up. Almost same pitch Mauer GIDP on.

[glunn]

If only the Twins could have kept Cuddyer AND brought in Willingham -- we could be seeing a lot more runs.

[Vegeta]

Needs to be a bit more patient. We need to get into their pen.

[Vegeta]

So much for that. Damnit Pavano.

[glunn]

SIX straight hits. This is sickening.

[Ultima Ratio]

Well, no need to keep following this game now. Will a starting pitcher please stand up?...
