Twins!!

SIX straight wins!

Cleveland lost! 4 1/2 game lead.

Cron! Hard to believe that his was the only Twins home run in a 13 run game.

Go Twins!!!

Twins!!

Caveman! 2 Homers.

Cron! Another homer.

Home run record! Most ever hit by a team on the road (141 in a season). They need just 6 more to tie the all-time record, but the Yankees are only 10 behind us right now.

16 hits!

sigh? Cleveland won.

sigh? After Detroit this weekend, our next four series are against Boston, Cleveland (twice) and Washington (the hottest team in baseball) Realistically, that lead could disappear rather quickly the next couple of weeks. sigh

Twins!!

Scoop! TWO homers.

Garver! He hit one as well.

Odorizzi! Good start.

Bullpen! NO runs again.

sigh? Cleveland won.

Twins!!

Gonzalez! Home run.

Schoop! Home run.

Pineda! Another great start.

Bullpen! No runs.

sigh? Buxton's shoulder is worse than they thought. He's going to be out longer.
sigh? Cleveland won.

Twins!!

Cron! Homer.

Schoop! Homer.

Perez! A good start

Cleveland lost!

3 1/2 game lead once more!

Go Twins!!!

Surprise? Andrew Luck's retirement from football. He's just had enough of the injuries and pain.

Twins!!

Kepler!

Sano!

Caveman!

I like the nickname jerseys.

sigh? Cleveland is going against KC and won again.

Go Twins!!!

Twins!!

Cleveland lost to the Mets!

The Twins now have a 3 1/2 game lead!

sigh

I think I'm just going to comment on Twins' wins from now on. Most experts say the Twins are still the favorites to win the division because of "strength of schedule".

But the Twins have never had a hard time losing to teams that are worse than them. Chicago is just another case in point.

And Cleveland has better pitching.

I hate writing these negative posts, so I'll just comment when the Twins win.

It makes it easier to write them.

Twins!!

Three game lead once more!

Three home runs!

Cruz! 4 hits, including one of those homers.

Won five out of their last 6!

sigh

I think I'm going to take a break.

The Twins are now looking like a typical Minnesota team.

If they get a three game lead again, or maybe when the Vikings start playing for real, my interest may return.

Happy trails!

Twins!!

Odorizzi! Great pitching.

Kepler, Gonzalez! Home runs.

Alone in first place!

Go Twins!!!

Vikings!

It's just preseason, but the offense that was on the field looked good.

The defense did, too.

New Orleans didn't have all their best out their either.

The Twins? sigh. It was fun while it lasted.

sigh

One game lead.

Cruz got hurt.

It was a good season.

Vikings tonight.

Go Vikings!!

sigh

Now I know what everyone else feels like when they go against us...

sigh

I don't mind losing. I just hate that Berrios looked that bad.

We had four home runs (2 by Cruz) and still lost by five.

heavy, heavy sigh...

Twins!!

They wasted another good start, BUT...

Sano! Pinch-hit walk off home run on the first pitch. First one since 2006.

4 wins in a row! 9 out of 11.

Kepler! His 31st.

Cleveland LOST! FOUR game lead.

Go Twins!!!

Twins!!

3-game sweep! The Twins haven't swept a team in a three-game series since late May.

Smeltzer!  The kid FINALLY got a win. He always pitches well before we send him back down, but this time he got run support.

Bullpen! A team shutout.

Defense! NO errors. Finally.

Castro! Homerun.

sighs? Buxton on disabled list again. Cleveland won.


Go Twins!!!

Twins!!

Cruz! THREE Home runs. That's twice in ten days.

Cron and Polanco! They both hit one as well.

Gibson! Just two earned runs in 6 plus innings.

sigh? The Twins defense has been full of holes for over a month now. Cleveland won again, too.

Go Twins!!!

Twins!!

Okay, having basically NO PITCHING STAFF has made the games far more interesting as of late,

BUT, even though I'm still excited that they are winning MOST of their games,

I have a feeling, a very bad feeling, that I'm not going to enjoy the last couple months of the season like I did the first four.

Nevertheless,

Go Twins!!!

sigh

That ninth...

Twins!!

Berrios! 7 shutout innings. 11 strikeouts.

Three more home runs! (The 32nd time this season they have hit 3 or more in a game.) Kepler. Rosario. Garver.

52 home runs for the month. That's FOUR straight months with 50. NO TEAM has ever done that before.

sigh? Ninth inning "relief". Cleveland won.

Go Twins!
