Minnesota Twins 2014: The Quest for .500

Re: Minnesota Twins 2014: The Quest for .500

While the sweep was good, tonight illustrates more and more that with Twins pitching, it's just a matter of when the starter implodes.

Twins get an early-season off day. Is it snowing in the TC or just wet?
Day / Night DH tomorrow.

It was snowing in DT Mpls until around 4:30, when I was jumping on my bus out of town. The snow/rain line was slowly moving north then.

The Twins just scored 6 runs on 1 hit, 8 walks, and 3 wild pitches. Great work by the Blue Jays bullpen.

And we were just talking about them winning on batter interference last week. There's some weirdness going on with this team, man!

Anybody see any notes on the last time a major league team walked 8 in 1 inning? I haven't yet, just wondering.

I watched that inning this morning with the toronto broadcast on. Crazy part is, we left the bases loaded. They could of scored a lot more.

The Toronto Blue Jays' bullpen totally Minnesota Twins' bullpenned that.

:p:D:D I talked with my dad last night, and we pretty much said the same thing...this sort of thing usually only happens against us.

So, 8-7 through 15 games. The bats have been far better than I would have imagined, especially our patience at the plate. Gibson seems like he could have a very good season, and it is nice to have a pitcher that can pitch in bad weather. Hopefully they can keep it up and take the series with KC this weekend.

Apparently it has happened 3 times (all in the 8th inning) since 1974...last time was 1996 between Texas and Baltimore (Angels and Oakland also in 1979).
