Yu Darvish of the Texas Rangers yesterday came EVER SO CLOSE to perfection. 26 up, 26 down. All he needed was one more out and he would have had a perfect game...
He didn't get it. The next batter grounded one right through his legs for the Astros first hit of the game. Another hit followed that. It was still a win, but potential immortality was left for another day. It was merely the best start of the early season.
Twins and Tigers play again this afternoon. The weather should be much nicer. The pitching for the Twins is expected to be much worse. It's only the second game of the season, and I already feel like the cause is lost. It's tough trying to be a Twins fan.
Maybe the Twins will win a slugfest? The season is just getting started. Unreasonable hope still abounds.
