MIN 7, CHW 2: Berrios CG, Power from the Eds Fuel Twins Victory

Happy anniversary indeed. Thanks for these wrap-ups. Win or lose, I always read them. Thanks again!

Love the game wrap-ups!

Thanks Tom.

And it makes for a much better evening after a game like this.  Berrios said he went to sleep last night thinking 'he was going to pitch a complete game.'  Said he knew he had to do it.  When Marney asked how much he had left in the tank, he said "2 more innings."

And the offense got going with a Rosario double and Escobar home run.  Then another bomb by Rosario later to put it outta reach.  This team needs more hitters helping out if they are going to keep feeling good!

Happy Anniversary, Tom.  Wow, Gimmy to Escy a year ago.  I guess that team had some ups and downs too.

Having a baby in the house is a weird deal.  Exhausting in many ways, but it also forces you to be home a lot and if you're home, might as well get some stuff done while they're napping.  Anyway, I love these game wraps.  Thanks for doing it.  Great game to celebrate one year with.

Boy, how about these Twins!  I'm going to enjoy the ride to 80-82 wins and a sniff of the division title.  Some days like yesterday, some like today.  There will have to be at least one hot streak in there as well.  Until these guys hit their stride and play like a 100 win team every day, I'll join right in with the griping.  Infuriating as they are, there is a lot to like, and they have at least earned our hope, if not our trust.

You have a baby in the house? Enjoy them now, because this is about as easy as child rearing gets.

Where would this team be without the Eds?

Going to MLB for recaps is great but then there is no discussion.    Game threads are great but I didn't want to read through 5 pages of it to see if something had already been discussed to death in that thread.    Baseball Reverence is great but they are a little slow to post and kind of annoying to go there to find out what time the next three games are. and check the standings.      I still go to those sites but now I don't go from one to the other several times to find out what happened in last night's game.   Thanks for all you do Tom.

No, those days have passed, although I'm home with a sick six year old right now.

Love these! Thank you

Agreed, Mr. Pixel, er, Sixel. 

Nice job, I see most of the games but I never miss your write up. Thank you. . Btw, dont worry about child time. Eventually they will change their mailing address, but they never leave home.

As a father of 2, my experience was, 0-2 is sleep deprivation; 3-9 is just the tops of the tops - you the man, or woman, in their lives; 10-18 is the challenge of balancing what the kids want and the outside world with the relationship you have built up to that point. Good cop, bad cop, friend or parent, it all gets muddled. 18-24 is where it all comes together for better or worse. In my case, it was better, but I've watched it go south with some of my kids' friends.

Best of luck to all of you who are parents. Certainly puts baseball in perspective. 

Happy happy anniversary, no morning is complete without my coffee and Twins Daily.

Eh, they are ok. Whatever.

No, really, Tom, exceptional work on the recaps. Thank you, and happy birthday!

And by the way, CG OBVIOUSLY stands for “Capitals Goal”, which reminds me of who your Stanley Cup Champions are!

My first was born yesterday. Holding him and reading the wrap. Happy birthday to both of you. My wife and watched yesterday's game after 30+hours without sleep, and decided on a name. Ed. Thank you for your efforts, Tom.

Congratulations. And I like the name. Will it be Ed, Edward, Eddie, or Eduardo? There's also another option: there's a player in the HOF named Edd Roush. Edd with two d's.

Thank you for your excellent work.

By far, your recaps are my must go to thread on Twins Daily!!! Always amazed how quickly they are done and so detailed!

Happy anniversary!!! Thanks for all the work you put into these threads!

What would Sano become if he spent the offseason working out with Berrios?! Loved to see Molitor stay with him for the 9th. It has to help a pitcher's stamina in a later game in which he may need it to get through 6.
