The Twins? on ESPN two nights in a row? They must be playing the Red Sox or something... |
|
Oh wait... They ARE!

If you left coast folks would have the courtesy to start your games at reasonable times, like 7 or 8pm Eastern time you would get more showings...:P

2. Hubba. We ROCKED Wakefield last night for 7 runs. I |
|
happen to LOVE Tim Wakefield, so I was a little sorry to see it, and we still barely hung on to win it. Schilling got us in game two; we came from behind to take the series opener with a walk-off 2 run single in the ninth off of Papelbon! :woohoo: :hi:

5. I must say, I enjoyed last night's game |
|
I would have enjoyed it more had our defense not temporarily ran away and joined the circus in the middle innings.
:D

13. They've already gone down-up-down |
|
Prior to Wednesday's loss to the Mets, they had a streak of eight straight and 10 of 12 in which they averaged eight runs per game.
Before that, they were 9-12 and seven games back. Last Tuesday, they were 19-14 and three back. Now they're 19-18, but 2 1/2 back because the Snakes can't buy a win lately, either.
Furcal's been out of the lineup with a bad back for five games, though. Even with a club batting average of .276 and the league's fifth-highest run total, you don't take your .366/.448/.597 leadoff hitter out of the lineup and expect to win as many ball games.

8. Go Rays. The best story in baseball |
|
You could see in Spring training that this team was going to be special. Hope they can continue to play above 500 ball and work toward a wild card. That would be a great gift!!

17. It was our pleasure helping you achieve .528 |

Manny Ramirez is only a few days removed from hitting HR #500. Maybe only a few at bats.
I will admit, I'm leery of our bats tonight against your guy on the mound tonight.

I am shocked, it looks like I am getting a choice of the game feeds (all three) on DirecTV today.
I thought that if it were being aired on ES PEEEEEUUUUUUUUU N that it would supercede any of the out of market "local team feeds" of the game.
I would rather listen to DickNBert than JonNJoe
