[Seth Stohs]

Denard Span tweeted a bit ago that Batting Practice was cancelled.

[ChuckkJay]

That's Spando Calrissian to you, Seth.

That's Spando Calrissian to you, Seth.

Damn... Spando Calrissian is actually catching on.

I am looking at the radar and we may get lucky. The worst of the rain is already south of Target field. and going southeast. If no new storms show up, they might get it in.

[Nick Nelson]

I live 10-15 miles from the stadium -- around here the rain has let up and the skies aren't looking too ominous.

Hope they can get the game in. This has been a fun series so far.

[Brock Beauchamp]

I'm less than five miles from the stadium as the crow flies and I don't think it has rained here in three hours.

[TwinsGuy55422]

I live close to the ball park as well and it hasn't rained at all in couple of hours. I hope they can play ball. Let's keep the string of series wins going.

[TwinsGuy55422]

Good to see Parmelee back in the lineup. I would like to see him get regular at-bats.

[pjnelly]

Mauer's third game in a row at catcher.

My goodness, Plouffe has really figured it out. Don't stop now!

My goodness, Plouffe has really figured it out. Don't stop now!

Based on his recent rate, Plouffe could hit more than 60 home runs this year.

[snepp]

OMFG listen to all those non-twins fan *******s! They should all be strung up in the street for not booing Thome!!1!

ARGH!!!!

[Ultima Ratio]

No standing ovation for Thome tonight? Hmmm...

No standing ovation for Thome tonight? Hmmm...

I am glad to hear that. Now we need to get some damn offense going.

[Dilligaf69]

Might wanna stop pitching to Thome no??

[Dilligaf69]

Come on guys it's Joe Blanton!

[Ultima Ratio]

Looks like we are taking good pitches, getting behind, and swinging at pitchers' pitches.
