Heaven forbid.....the guy threw 10 pitches and struck out the side. And all 3 looked like crap.

Great 9th. We swung at the bad pitches and watched the good ones go by. But on a positive we had 3 straight good starts.

Ya know....that's totally true.

Reminder to all of us: JD has made it official, this season is now about evaluation and growth. Not W's vs L's.

So good point on the 3 excellent starts.

Another fabulous offensive display, highlighted by a stirring 9th inning flurry of K's.

A typical Twins loss - how do we lose to these guys? They had One solid base hit the whole damn game...

And Greece just tied it up...

We took the series, but losing this game the way we did took a lot of joy out of it, it seems. To a Twin pitcher who had a terrible away era. Only the 2014 Rangers.

He's 1-1 regardless of what the box score says, and damn lucky to be that instead of 0-2.

But hey....he's been a bright spot, and we sat him way too long. Sometimes, IMO, screw the circumstances, ya gotta let a guy get some pitches in, just to keep him semi-fresh. We didn't do this.

And before I bad mouth Soria, all we had to do was score a few runs and this conversation wouldn't be taking place.

Their first 2 runs were pretty lucky and we can't score w a guy on 3rd and no outs, frustrating. Soria did need to get some work in during that 8 game losing streak and it showed here
