You know, there's something undeniably sweet about my newfound ability to make Twins greats Joe Nathan, Justin Morneau, Joe Mauer, Michael Cuddyer, Tsuyoshi Nishioka, Jim Thome, Delmon Young, and Carl Pavano talk to country stars like Justin Moore. If only I couldn't through Dozier into the mix. Here, hold on, I think I'll do just that.

Well we got a lead, got Nolasco out of there, and now should cruise the rest of the way home. 

[Hrbowski]

Ricky is in line to get the win.

What?

[Hrbowski]

Nice play!

[Craig Arko]

What?

Niiiice.

 

[D. Hocking]

Who do you think is going to be chosen to start the first play-off game, Nolasco or Pelfrey?

[formerly33]

 

Oh, no wonder I didn't know what you meant. Never saw it before. Oh, the things you learn on TD. If this had been mandatory curriculum in school, I would have known everything a Minnesotan girl could ever wish to know... and then some.

Santana is beginning to heat up!

Santana is beginning to heat up!

Let's hope he gets as hot as he can without actually reaching burning point. Whatever that is.

[Hrbowski]

Darn!

[Squirrel]

Lol ... Hawk was calling it a HR

Pelf's contract expires at the end of this season so that rules him out.

[formerly33]

Bye bye boys...have fun storming the castle. Gotta go make supper. Think it'll work?

[Hrbowski]

I wonder if Cory Provus can hang on to the lead.

[ashbury]

See that nice pickup at third, Halsey?

[Circus Boy]

Just reporting that I know the score. CBU.

[ashbury]

Just reporting that I know the score. CBU.

Oh, you just figured out the Race Bannon - Jade thing, eh?

 

Twins 5-3 in the middle of the 7th.

[Squirrel]

Just reporting that I know the score. CBU.

And you're not going to share? Well, isn't that a fine thank you for all who have given CBUs on your behalf!

Maybe the Twins are turning a corner and will do better this year than many of us thought?

Maybe. But I'm not committing to anything until after the All-Star break.

Maybe, maybe not.  But it sure makes for a more enjoyable game experience right now.

[Squirrel]

Halsey's guy is up now ...

[glunn]

 

Maybe, maybe not.  But it sure makes for a more enjoyable game experience right now.

Beating Sale then winning 1-0 with a great showing by Gibson then winning today will have provided a great fan experience.  Hopefully more fans will start showing up at Target Field.

 

I have my tickets in hand for Anaheim this year.

Plouffe seems to be following the Koskie plan for maturing into a solid third baseman.

 

Oh, and Hughes starts the first playoff game.
