Twins win!! Was there ever any doubt? 

How many were holding their breath with Sanó chasing that foul pop?

Whew! Nice to win the series!

Good stuff guys!! 5-1!!

Another nice catch by Mauer wins it. Kintzler needs blister surgery.

 

Twins win!! Was there ever any doubt? 

Yes.

Just got here -- if someone would not have said something to jinx yesterday's game we would be 6-0 right now.    

5-1 is an amazing start... we are unworthy!

Vinder af kylling middag!

Let's see how he does in Rachacha

I was worried about it bouncing off his head.

Day off tomorrow. Bullpen gets a rest, Kintzler gets a mani-pedi.

Mauer flashed the glove this weekend! Yesterday was bad, but I cannot argue with the results of today's game. Quintana is top notch and Santana out dueled him.

 

MF'in Winnah!

What a great game. Love seeing Sano go yard. He's a gem. 

Two takeaways:

 

One: I can't hate on Mauer any more, after those great catches he made.

 

Two: Kintzler and the team gutted through a game where Kintzler didn't have his best stuff.

 

For whatever reason, in the early season, this team is not the team of last year. 

 

 

I think Joe was surprised he caught that one. 

 

Wow, we're 5-1! I'd like to see how this team will play against a playoff-caliber opponent.

My fault, I was busy most of the game and the first 4 games I watched from the first pitch.

Fine defense again today. One day of bad defense-one loss.

 

BTW-didn't hear from Chi-Town but if she did go to the game, it proved she's not a jinx.

I am pleased that I did not need to use my other two wishes from that kind genie.

The Twins are 5-1 against teams that are supposed to be beatable. Good teams are supposed to beat these teams. Yes, it's early to call this Twins team good or even marginal. The early indications are promising, however.

Hypothetically: If Kitzler goes down, does Duffy close? Pressly?

This is the first game that I have been able to watch in real time, and my heart is still pounding.

My son just pointed out that the Twins almost have 10 percent of last year's win total.

At least this year the Twins are not at the top of that list of beatable teams.

It isn't. The vibe and energy is opposite of last year. I'm not saying the Twins are going to be kings of the castle, but I think we can look forward to a summer of this team playing competent and competitive baseball. 

 

Man it feels so good!

Your son's math is poetry.

 

At least this year the Twins are not at the top of that list of beatable teams.

Now that's a great observation. 

Great Win!!  I'll take credit for it.  

 

I think the team read some of my more inspirational quotes...  Wish I could have seen it.

It seems to me that the chemistry has greatly improved, and I am loving the pitch framing.

 

Great Win!!  I'll take credit for it.

You did very well today.
