A Twins error in the eighth almost cost the Twins a win, but Hughes gave up NO earned runs yesterday. Mauer looked great with his clutch hitting and Kennys Vargas picked up two more RBI also.
Perkins nailed down his 33rd save, shaky as it was, and the Twins managed to not get swept in Baltimore.
Hughes is the first real starter we have had since Johann Santana. His control is amazing.
In other baseball news, the Phillies staff combined for a no-hitter yesterday. Cole Hamels pooped out after six innings, but the bullpen did the necessary mop up work. Baseball, at least for one more day, was pretty cool again.
