When Scott Baker pitches a game like that, dammit all to hell, you have to find a way to win.
Hell, when anybody pitches a game like that for you, you have to find a way to win.
The Twins have won eight of their last twelve, and just went in and won two of three in Detroit, and they’ve still somehow managed to lose ground in the standings.
Not somehow, actually; Cleveland just keeps winning.
“We have a game plan and we’re sticking to it. Guys are walking, guys are getting in hitting counts. Not being defensive.” So said Michael Cuddyer after Saturday afternoon’s game. Yeah? Really? Where was this game plan against Jeremy Bonderman? The guy was throwing his slider out of the strike zone all night and the Twins were flailing away at it like there was no tomorrow.
By the way: Sunday was the thirteenth time this season the Twins have scored one or fewer runs.
