So I know JC is off on Kernel duty so apparently that leaves me the only one here to do this – my apologies for lateness and lack of comment as I’m sick as a dog and will be here if I can but probably not for long.. stupid west coast ball.
At any rate – this is a far more intimidating team to me than the Angels who I considered beatable after their appearance here in Minnesota. I’ll be happy with any win we can pull off in Safeco! Even with the fact that we have fences moved in for our hitters this year, the pitching in Seattle is a true challenge.
Go Twins!

I know the Twins ended up losing, because that’s what the box score says, but I didn’t see a single pitch. Iwakuma, predictably, shut down the Twins. Woe is me.
