Nice to be down 4-5 runs....

and believe your club has a chance. Like last night, when it was 5-1 early in the game. Sure enough they came back. They got a free 3rd out to end the game on a safe runner at second, but who's to say Rauch wouldn't have gotten that third out on a fly out or any base but home?

The Twins have a powerful lineup.

They really have not put it all together yet.

Wait until guys like Kubel start contributing.

They have the capability to put big innings together at any time.

It is going to be a fun season.

So did that count as a blown save and a win then for Rauch?

Yep

It sure is fun to watch a team that you cant rule out when they are down by 3.

I've felt that way about the Twins for the last 5 years or more. Seems like they always have a chance.

[SledNeck]

with the ROYALS pitching....anything is possible

A sweep would've been a nice way to end the weekend, but oh well, can't really complain when we haven't lost a series yet. Would never have guessed that liriano would be our only sure thing in the rotation at this point in the season though.

Yep, but this season it's been upped just a bit!!!!

[Big Dave2]

I agree!

Yeah it really forces me (not that it takes much) to watch till the last out of the 9th inning! This team is very dangerous and I'm just waiting for the clutch hitting to kick in! We could have about 3 more wins if we could have gotten one big hit! Its very nice to not have to hope that we are at the 3-4-5 spot because our lineup is dangerous from top to bottom (esp. with the off the bench hitters that can come in!) I even feel like Harris can come through with a hit at the end of the game!
