Twins officially DEAD.

White Sox Suck

Well, at least we can devote all of our energy to the Halos now.

Real disappointing. Horrible way to lose to a terrible team from a terrible city who wear terrible uniforms and play in a terrible ballpark built by terrible construction workers.

thats funny stuff...but i think its safe to say that the sox got lucky on that play. the ball bounced off the mound just right, it went up the line just enough for a.j. to not get completely run over by cuddyer, and lets not forget that it was so shallow that griffey's squirt gun was barely able to get cuddyer and his bad foot out.

Cuddyer absolutely had to try to score there. It was the right play, especially with Punto on deck. AJ drops that ball, or Griffey's throw is up the line a couple of feet, every one calls Ulger a genius.

Very fitting that the Twins lose while getting shutout. Say what you want about the Twins scoring the 3rd most runs in the AL this year, the fact is, they score in bunches. Its games like this when they needed a legitimate power bat to do exactly what Thome did. The Sox were shutdown just like the Twins were, except for one bad pitch and one good swing by Thome. We can't always rely on stringing several hits together or having the best batting average with runners in scoring position in over 40 years. THE TWINS NEED AN F'N POWER BAT TO PREVENT OR AT LEAST MINIMIZE GAMES LIKE THIS!!!!!

i dont care who i on deck or how poor griffey has become. He fielded the ball just over two hundred feet from home plate. He didn't have to fire it. He two hopped it right in there. Gardy could have seen the possibility for a pinch runner if it was a necessity to tag.
