run as fast as you can D-Span...

Wow 3 triples that's pretty awesome. Denard is definitely digging the new ball park, seems the only place he can get a hit lately. I did not get to watch much of the game last night but what I saw was fun!!

Another home run for Thome, guess Cuddy at third is working. Though don't think Thome can keep running the bases like that!

It was good to hear that Detroit Pitcher Zumaya is relatively OK...I guess a broken elbow is better then torn ligaments. Glad Twins fans were classy and gave him a support as he came off the field. I love it when fans think beyond their own team and support players in hard times like that, or acknowledge exceptional play like when fans gave White Sox pitcher Buerhle a round of applause for an almost perfect game here last year.

The game last night is hopefully the beginning of a streak before the Allstar game. We need to get on a positive run, help keep those bandwagon fans aboard. I am not sold on picking up or as Reusse said in the Trib today "renting" Cliff Lee for the rest of the season. Maybe I am old fashion but I want the guys who have been working hard all year to be the ones to get us to the post season. I want my team to be real Twins not a guy who plays part of a season then leaves the next. That just doesn't sit right with me, I know that's not how pro sports work in the modern world.

Go Twins!

FRANCISCO!

What a game last night! First and most importantly Liriano looked awesome. He looked nasty and dominant! He definitely has his mojo workin'! His pitches were moving and he just looked really confident on the mound. Seems like he and Joe were working the batters well. We needed him to pitch awesome because Verlander was throwing some crazy nasty stuff of his own.

That ball was dropping and moving all over. Almost can't get mad at the ump when he has to track such crazy stuff. Though the pitch D-span got mad about was very outside. D-span knows he needs to keep his disgust to himself! That was very out of character for him and really stupid. We have to hope he does not get suspended for throwing the bat! I can't even imagine what Gardy said to him after that but am guessing D-span is beating himself up. I say shake it off let it go and don't do it again!

How about our old guy Thome! Running the bases like a spring chicken! Got to love it when the big diesel is out there cruising around the bases! I really appreciate the effort he puts out. I expect he'll hit more home runs as the season goes on just to avoid running like that!

Tigers really hurt themselves with some really terrible errors! Crazy they got more errors in one game then we have had all season! Good job Harris being so versatile, not only holding up 3rd base but then moving over to 1st! Lets hope Moryes is feeling OK today!

Go Twins!

PS Way to go Rauch!!!
