    I’m sure discussions were beginning about what would happen should this game need to go to extra innings. The Twins sent a split-squad roster to play the Rays, so there were only a certain number of pitchers available. That’s when catcher JR Towles stepped to the plate with a runner on in the top of the 9th. The #3-catcher hopeful hit a fly ball that, with the help of a strong wind, landed on the other side of the fence for a two-run homer that gave the Twins a 5-3 lead. Towles comes to the Twins as a minor league free agent. He had once been a top prospect in the Astros system and had a terrific showing as a rookie in 2007. In 44 plate appearances he hit .375. However, in the four years since, he has hit .137, .188, .191, and .184. The Astros had had enough. The Twins likely figured that wouldn’t be much worse than Drew Butera and maybe there is a chance he could return to some level of competency with a change of scenery. [ATTACH=CONFIG]251[/ATTACH] Rule 5 selection Terry Doyle made the start for the Twins. He went two innings and hit a batter in the first inning and issued a walk in the second inning. However, he gave up no runs and no hits. He also struck out one. Scott Diamond came in and gave up one run on three hits and a walk. He was helped by outfielder Brian Dinkelman who threw out a runner at third base from right field in the inning. Luis Perdomo struck out two in his inning, but he also gave up a solo home run. PJ Walters walked three in two scoreless innings. Lester Oliveros pitched the seventh frame and gave up one run on two hits. Aaron Thompson pitched a perfect 8th inning. Casey Fien came in with the two-run ninth inning lead and threw a perfect inning for the save. Surprisingly, Alexi Casilla started the game at second base and played the whole game. He went 3-5 in the game with a stolen base. Trevor Plouffe was 2-3 with an RBI single before leaving the game. Chris Parmelee provided the big blow. In the top of the 6th, he gave the Twins a 3-2 lead with a long home run. The Twins improved to 2-0 against the Rays on the spring.

    JR Towles with an opposite-field, wind-aided, two run homer in the top of the 9th to give the Twins a 5-3 lead.
  4. Seth Stohs
    Ha! I'm struggling listening to both games and trying to post on both forums. Ha!
  5. Seth Stohs
    Mastroianni lays down the sac bunt and almost beats it out... Gardy's gotta love that!
  6. Seth Stohs
    Arcia's in RF, right?
  7. Seth Stohs
    PJ Walters pitched a 2nd inning.
  8. Seth Stohs
    For those interested, we've got a Twins Daily Forum for both games.
  9. Seth Stohs
    Chris Parmelee with a two-run homer off Burke Badenhop. It scored Matt Carson who was pinch-running for Trevor Plouffe. Plouffe had singled and went 2-3 on his day.
  10. Seth Stohs
    Those watching... did Burton throw FB/Cutter? How did it look?
  11. Seth Stohs
    PJ Walters got out of some trouble with a nice 4-6-3 double play.
  12. Seth Stohs
    Perdomo came back with a strikeout of Tim Beckham and a ground out back to himself. Not too shabby.
  13. Seth Stohs
    Perdomo strikes out the first batter on three straight called strikes. But Jeff Salazar took his first pitch and blasted a home run.
  14. Seth Stohs
    Scott Diamond in for the 3rd inning. Got the first out, then gave up a single. Then gave up another single, but Brian Dinkelman threw out the runner trying to go to 3rd base. However, Matt Joyce singled in a run. Diamond gave up one run on three hits in the third inning.
  15. Seth Stohs
    Francisco Liriano walks the first batter he faces, Dustin Pedroia. He then got a double play on a liner to Aaron Bates at 1B. He then struck out Cody Ross.

    The Mayor's Cup is cool in theory. But it really means absolutely nothing.

    I like the idea of renovating Hammond Stadium to look like Target Field. I'd feel horrible for the Ft. Myers Miracle players, but oh well.

    I can't get the mlb.tv... must be blacked out... and I don't get mlb network.
  19. Seth Stohs
    Trevor Plouffe lined to RF for an RBI single to give the Twins a 1-0 lead.
  20. Seth Stohs
    Alexi Casilla singled in his second at bat, so he's 2-2.
  21. Seth Stohs
    Ha! Nice!! Ben Revere leads off the game with a single past a diving Dustin Pedroia.
  22. Seth Stohs
    Solid Twins debut for Terry Doyle. Three ground ball outs to 1B, a fly out to RF, a strikeout. He hit Sean Rodriguez with a pitch. The lone negative was the 2-out, 2nd inning walk to Jeff Salazar. Came back to get a pop up to shallow right. Two innings, no hit, no runs, 1 BB, 1 K. 1 HBP.
  23. Seth Stohs
    According to MLB Trade Rumors, the Orioles released Dennys Reyes.
  24. Seth Stohs
    Game Delayed until 12:45 due to pregame festivities at JetBlue Stadium.
  25. Seth Stohs
    Are you listening? Parmelee barely got hit. It took a minute to realize it hit him. That wasn't a purpose pitch in any way.
