Most overpaid and the most hated team in baseball! I do think we win this series after what happened in NY.

Is the other shoe ever going to drop for Ponscum?
Then you have T-shirts or shirts that you received as a gift or you bought when you were drunk or in the mood to just buy something. Those are the Carl Pavano shirts. -Bill Simmons |

I'd take 6-2 in the Twins' favor tonight. Let Perkins pitch 7 and give it to the pen. Crain was pretty impressive yesterday.

I still cannot believe how well this young rotation has held up. Its sad they aren't getting enough media coverage because these guys are pitching out of their minds and its great to see!

Span with a double, Punto sac bunt, RBI sac fly by Mauer. Twins up 3-0. That's Twins baseball to the T, right there.

Whats up with Everett? When has he ever hit a homer? Big hit he had I will give him that. Great to see Perkins pitching well. 9 outs to go for a huge Twins win over the Evil Empire!
