Everyone except Erik Komatsu was involved in the hitting, and that's a great sign. It's tough not to be excited about Brian Dozier. True, it's a small sample size, but he has exceeded expectations so far, including a big 3-run home run earl...430Thu, 17 May 2012 03:37:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/tuesdays-trip-through-the-minors-r425/The Twins put up a lackluster effort at home in getting swept during a short two-game series with the first place Cleveland Indians. Derek Lowe looked like Cy Young on the mound and the Twins continued to hit ground ball after ground ball to fall further behind the Tribe.

Scott Diamond did it again. In a repeat of his first big league start of the season, the left-hander threw seven shutout innings. That he lasted seven innings is most impressive since he was drilled in the left shoulder by a lin...417Sun, 13 May 2012 21:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/saturday-in-the-parks-r416/PJ Walters was terrific in his Twins debut, but the Twins lost by a score of 2-1.

Jason Marquis was able to go just four innings. The game was ugly for Twins fans. There were base running errors. There were several defensive errors. There was bad pitching, and bad hitting.
