So much for the “Morales will need a few days to get in to playing shape” stuff, huh? Kendrys Morales is in the Twins’ lineup tonight as the DH and batting sixth.

Looks like I neglected to include the pitching matchup in the lineups. It’s Nolasco, P for the Twins and former Twin Dickey, P for the Jays. – JC

Odd game. First two hitters go yard for the Twins and then pretty much nothing until the ninth when they rally to tie the game. Unfortunately, the bullpen coughed one up in the bottom of 9.
