Too bad Bill Smith still can't wrap his head around the concept of innings caps.
I miss the old Lariano. Me thinks he'll never be quite the same

That's not the issue, but that the TJ surgery sapped the bite of his slider.
Overuse wasn't what caused the surgery, but Liriano's inability to throw through pain. The doctor didn't even want to do TJ because he didn't see the need.

Mark Loretta has a great figure four leg lock, though that was at 3rd base.

The loved-now really hate relationship with Skippy Knoblauch continues, he probably would have been here this weekend but he couldn't make bail and the dome wouldn't promise to stop selling hot dogs.
EDIT: Hrbek is awesome!

All kinds of funny going on out there.
It was also cool seeing Gladden and Brunansky holding up the #34 during the announcement of the all-metrodome team.
Gaetti just stole third. Literally.

I welled up a bit with the Kirby tribute. Otherwise the rest of it was pretty good fun.

As to why Gardy pulled Dunsing, I think he figured that with the lead bumped back up, he'd be able to somehow get 6 more outs from Guerrier and Nathan if KC came back again, and by pulling Dunsing after an inning, he's available as a long man if needed on Tuesday. He probably remembers all too well what happened the last time Scott Baker started a huge game against Detroit in the Dome.
If another rookie pitcher shuts us down in game #163, that would be most cruel after all of this. Because now they've managed to suck every last one of us back in.
Maybe more so of late when he directs it at the path of an oncoming baseball. Jose Mijares seems to have inspired Demtri's little bro in a way that the Twins coaching staff never could.

"Minnesota is starting to run up against the calendar, as well. To get to 86-76, for example, Detroit needs to go 17-15 the rest of the way. Minnesota needs to go 21-11. There's not a lot of teams that play .677 baseball down the stretch, especially after going .500 the first 120 games or so."

We're home from the game, and it was awesome. The game was great and the postgame ceremony was really cool.

We tried to get tickets at the ticket office after the ceremony, well, shirtless guy did because I absolutely can't leave work early that day, and the best available were 20th row, upper deck behind the Twins bullpen. The entire lower bowl was already sold out, there were some $8 cheap seats tickets available.
