Let's string some hits together, we can't afford to waste pitching like this.

Come on guys, let's get a run. When we get pitching performances like this, especially from a guy who has been struggling, we have got to come through with some runs.

Come on Span, let's take advantage of the extra out this inning!

Carroll and Dozier have all 4 of our hits. Let's pick up the slack.

2-4 hitters coming up in the 9th. Time for Willingham and Morneau to do some damage!

Nice line shot by the Hammer. Time for Justin to drive him in.

Not pinch-running for Willingham.....I don't get it.

Is morneau's wrist hurting again? He has had some ugly swings.

Bremer just mentioned that it looked like he might have tweaked it an earlier at-bat.

Dang it. That was a pretty good poke by Plouffe, but it was not to be.

1-0 losses are the worst.

doumit first pitch swinging after a walk, not good discipline, too bad, pitching got it done tonight.

Let's hope that Liriano can keep up the good pitching.

Please NO!

He took a pretty good cut at that one he just hit foul of left field. Bremer was also calling 75 mph fastballs by Chen.

Most frustrating sequence (for me): Dozier on 1st, Butera pops up the sacrifice bunt (one out), followed immediately by Dozier getting picked off (2 outs), followed by Carroll single. Do your jobs & Carroll drives Dozier in ... maybe we win, maybe we're still playing.

 

Would like to see some of this fundamentally sound "Twins baseball" we keep hearing about. ....

I am glad that I missed that inning.

Agreed. Nothing worse than not picking up your pitchers when they give you a great performance. 12-11 losses are frustrating in their own right, but at least in a game like you're not left saying if we only could have gotten a couple of runs.
