The Twins need to win their games with the A's at the dome and head out to LA on a positive note.
Tonight, it's Blackburn v. Duchscherer.
Tomorrow, Slowey v. Gallagher.
Wednesday, Liriano v. Braden.

If the pen can do its job and not get hammered, we have a great chance to win the series. But if they pitch as bad as they have were going to be in trouble. Nathan can't continue to pitch two innings for a save.

As much as it pains me to say it, I don't think you guys will have much of a problem taking this series. We've lost 23 of 28 and are coming off of a 13-1 pounding by the Sox. Our morale has flown out the window, and it's taken our offense with it.


Need I say more?

Twins are struggling to get the offense going...only 4 hits through 4 innings against Duchscherer.

Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

Wow somehow we managed three runs against you guys...and we're currently holding you scoreless. Something's wrong.

Blackburn pitched a helluva game. He deserved to win. Unfortunately, no run support.

Trust me henks, you shouldn't be complaining about lack of run support. Those 3 runs were considered a breakout for us.

Mauer leads off bottom of 3rd with a single, and Morneau doubles him home. 4-1 Twins.

Sac fly by Kubel sending Morneau to 3rd, Ruiz singles him home. 5-1 Twins.

Harris then doubles home Ruiz, putting Twins up 6-1. Back to back 3 run innings for the boys from Minny.

Top of 4.

9-2 Twins. Carlos Gomez homers to Left Field... Maybe this will get him going? Soxs up 5-0 on a terrible Seattle club.
