Looked like a good solid game all the way around. After 3 games of sub-par ball in which the Twins were lucky to go 2-1, this was a good way to break out of the slump.

Yeah, but so far, without Yankee results.

It was fun to hit the MLB.TV wayback machine and watch the Twins score.Today finds us in Sunny Philly, where the cheesesteak sandwich finds its home. However, of other historical note, Philadelphia was home the Constitutional Convention and eventual ratification of the Constitution. Just imagine, without the Constitution, we, shudder, would have Cricket as the national sport with Gin being the drink of choice during a game, along with those weird cucumber sandwiches Brits seem so fond of. Instead, we have baseball, brats and beer, though, Philly fans would probably argue the Philly cheesesteak sandwich is proper ballpark food. And, all things considered, I would probably have to concede the point. After all that, what else do we know? Well, we know some guy by the name of Harper signed a big contract this off-season with Philly. Meanwhile, the Twins signed.....??? Pitching for the Twins: Jake Odorizzi Pitching for the Phillies: Nick Pivetta Play ball! Oops, no game thread involving Philly is complete without The Phanatic!Eh, grain of salt and all that. Reminds me of game threads where certain authors would rip on the opposing team. Not that I would know anything about such things. Looks to me like the author was just trying to be funny.
