Sale is gonna rip through that lineup like a hot knife through butter.

[Boom Boom]

This might have been a good day to give Morneau a rest.

Correction: this is the obvious day to give Morneau a rest.

Just heard on the radio that it sounds like Morneau ask for "a peice of this kid"

We see a tough lefty on the mound today, he sees a Kit-Kat bar. Fantastic.

All the chatter before yesterday's game was that the Twins were going to rip apart Gavin Floyd, especially with Doumit in the lineup. What did they do? Now the chatter is that Sale will obliterate this lineup. Maybe so or maybe not. I'd not be terribly surprised if Sale finally gets a shellacking this afternoon. Of course, perhaps that's just wishful thinking....

konerko, viciedo and beckham all on the pine

I like Morneau's confidence. Hubris always pays off.

[Gernzy]

This is one of my season tickets games. Co-worker is there right now. My seats are in the sun all game. He is going to roast!
On topic lets hope the Twins can pull this one off and get the series.

[SwainZag]

Looking at the numbers, career wise the Twins are a collective 5-39 against Sale with 0 XBH and 12 K's. The only player with multiple hits is Mauer, and he is 2-8.

[rnw24]

no hitter #2 against the twins this year?

[Brock Beauchamp]

Blackburn gives up a hit, two flyballs after that, no damage.

Need more sink, Nick.

[GCTF]

And Beardsie walks off the mound after his first inning NOT trailing.

rocketpig,
Bremer was explaining that Blackburn can get ground balls at will when his sinker is working.

All it takes is willpower? It's time for a new Twins pitching coach. I have the perfect guy in mind.

Clearly, the sinker "isn't working."
