The Twins are a game over .500 for the first time in almost 12 months. They’re scoring runs in bunches and Kyle Gibson is 3-0 with a super tiny ERA. Things are going pretty well for the Twins right now.
The Royals were swept a week ago in Minneapolis, let’s hope the Twins take their winning streak against the Royals one game longer, tonight.

KL here. I managed to stay awake for the whole game, but I’m not sure the Twins get the credit for that. It was quiet in the chat room this evening, kind of like the Twins, so I hope you all had a good evening elsewhere.
