I went to school and played with Ben Revere on the Twins. He can flat-out fly around the bases and his glove in center is phenomenal. He doesn't have great power, but he hits the ball hard and can drive it to any part of the field. He's a stud.

Sox lose 2/3.

 

[BigP50]

Ill be happy if we can win 2 in Minny.

 

[jcrab66]

twinks seem to be rolling now but i still think the sox get 2 of 3...

 

[AE23]

lets just keep winning series, 2 of 3 for us.

 

[Uman85]

A sweep would be HUGE. But 2 out of 3 is what we need. Have to start getting Ws against the division.

 

[Capt. Serious]

Thanks to this weak division, the Twins are in this race.

 

[DewsSox79]

we miss baker and liriano.

I'm actually more concerned about Blackburn and Pavano. They always pitch well against the Sox. I think it'll be a good series though. I'd be surprised to see either team sweep.

Wish the Twins still played in the Metrodome

Wish the Twins still played in the Metrodome

When I was at a Sox-Angels game 2 years ago I was right by the Angels dugout and Torii Hunter was signing autographs. A fan asked a question about the Metrodome, and believe it or not he actually said that he hated playing there. With all those amazing catches and wins they got I was shocked.

And Im also glad its not there, that was like the ultimate home field advantage in baseball.

2 underachieving teams so far going at it. Still think the Sox win the Central.

Small ball my foot. The reason why they were switch hitter/lefthanded dominant in their lineup was to take advantage of the short right field in the Metrodome.

twins are injured

sox are underachieving

i hate this series before it has even started.
