I was hoping for Buxton today, but Santana has been solid at the plate.

Diekman is from Wymore, Neb. Pop. 1,457. No more. No less.

DanSan with a 2 hit day! 

[glunn]

Odor seems to have a nice breaking ball -- right into the Twins' bullpen.

[glunn]

 

Kintzler is the closer now?

You called it.

OK, they've got the bottom third of the order in the ninth. Go right at 'em.

[Craig Arko]

Looks like Mauer really could have used the day off as originally planned.

[Don Walcott]

As a team, the Rangers have the best group of names.

[glunn]

Geez this is a close game.

[glunn]

Kintzler comes back from 3 balls.  That shows grit.

Um, lurking? I started the thread and have posted here and there. So not lurking. Just not constantly posting.
