GameChat – Twins @ Rangers #2, 6:05pm

I find myself having a SLIGHT advantage over most Twins fans tonight since we have a pitcher making his Twins debut tonight. I actually saw Deduno pitch at a B game in ST while on my honeymoon. However, that advantage is extremely slight because I can remember almost NOTHING about his outing. He didn’t suck but he wasn’t really out there a very long time – I think they went through something like 7 pitchers in that game…  At any rate, I’m kind of looking forward to seeing if I remember him when he’s out there.

Of course, I won’t get to see much of today’s game since I’ll most likely be either swimming with a 1 yo or fishing with a 3 yo.. fun times. If I’m lucky, I’ll be able to listen to parts of the game on the radio.. *cross your fingers* Another win would be FANTASTIC.

Another game, another boatload of missed opportunities. From the first inning through the 10th, our guys had runners in position to score but found a number of different ways to avoid doing so. The result is another big fat loss. – JC
