Twins

Correa made a real nice play on a line drive behind him to bail him out.
They're only 1 GB.

Correa and Buxton are great players and fun to watch.  I hope they stay healthy.  I hope Buxton will hit this year.
Only 1 game back after 4 straight losses.     Only in the AL Central.

Just like that..............they're tied for 1st place in the division ...................but so is everyone else!! Correa gets off the snide with 2 hits & the first 1 probably wasn't over 60 mph off the bat. They got 2 hits from Buxton & France too & 5 of their 6 runs came with 2 out.

Just like that they dump the opener to Houston 5-2. Last place again.

Its goona be a long season - living and dying again on every game like this.

meh.. hadn't bothered me a bit  I'd have no clue how there doing other then here or the news.

Ryan threw 83 pitches & only 49 were strikes, that's < 60%, tough to win like that. No idea what happened on the balk, but the 1st HR was on a hanger. They showed his stats & Ryan didn't pitch very good at home last year either. It's a long season, no game today though. Ober goes on Saturday; 1st pitch scheduled for 1:10.

Ober could only get through 4 but he only gave up 1 run. Miranda had the big hit, a 3-run HR in the 6-run 4th, for their 1st win at Target Field this season. Same time today & Paddack gets the ball.

The run Ober gave up was on like the first pitch to Altuve who had struck out 5 times the game before. Such is baseball. Fail one day but the next game is a chance for redemption.
I'm not a Miranda guy. I thought he was over-hyped when he first came up. If he wants to play he better do something because if & when Lewis gets back he will be at third.
I'm hoping Paddack has a good game. I like the guy but think he will be the sacrifical lamb for Falvey to get one of "his guys" out of Triple A and into the rotation.

Watched the game. The 3 run homer by Miranda could just as well not happened. 2 out and 2 strikes and he half swung at a high fast ball. First base ump said no swing. Should have gone the other way and no homer and side out. I watched it a couple times, and I would have said strike 3.

No 6 run fourth.
