Come on LAAOA! Get a run so I can go to bed in peace.

Leadoff single for Kendrick.

Leadoff single for Kendrick.

 

Get him over, get him in.

Nothing like pinch hitting for a DH hitting .140 with a guy batting .180.

Bunt popped up at a pitch at Rodriguez's collarbone. 1 out, Kendrick on first.

Rivera grounds to short, 2 out. Kendrick to second.

 

This Angels "awfense" is just putrid.

DP. Now end this.

I think they just said Teixeira has never hit a walk off HR, but that doesn't seem right.

Angels go 1-2-3. I think Crain threw like 5 pitches that inning.

accoding to baseball-reference.com, Tex has 0 walkoff HR's. Also 0 lead off HR

Torii is still helping the Twins.

Of course, Torii Hunter completely misplays a ball to give Minnesota the victory.

 

Ironic.

 

There's a gift...if they can get Span out, they should be able to get Casilla, as his hand is still bothering him.

Nice K

Twins up 2-1

0.5 is ok i guess..

Span's a really clutch hitter for a rookie. He's more dangerous, to me, than Cuddyer, because he also is a weapon defensively.

This would be an absolutely huge win for the Twins to start this road trip.

I know this is way early, but if they put up numbers such as 9-5, 10-4, or better on this road trip, we are going to be in trouble.

If they put up a 10-4 on the road trip...well, let's hope Boston starts losing a lot.

If they are ahead of us after playing 24/30 games on the road, then they deserve the division title.

This Angels offensive effort tonight is one of the worst I've seen this season. One hit in the last 8 innings, and that hit was a cheap infield single.

Quickly 2 out. DH hitting .176 up.

That's the game.

Well, the Twins offense didn't exactly set the world on fire tonight, if that's any consolation.

Over. Twins win 2-1. Sox up .5 games.
