Game 134: Minnesota Twins @ Cleveland Indians
Minnesota Twins at Cleveland Indians, Sep 4, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Pavano gets to face his most recent former team for the first time. The Twins could really, really use a quality start in this spot. A complete game might not be a bad idea, for that matter.
In six career starts against the Twins, Sowers is 2-3 with an ERA just under six. That's my way of saying he's hittable.
1. Denard Span, LF
2. Orlando Cabrera, SS
3. Joe Mauer, C
4. Justin Morneau, 1B
5. Jason Kubel, DH
6. Michael Cuddyer, RF
7. Brendan Harris, 3B
8. Carlos Gomez, CF
9. Alexi Casilla, 2B
1. Michael Brantley, CF
2. Jamey Carroll, 2B
3. Asdrubal Cabrera, SS
4. Jhonny Peralta, 3B
5. Travis Hafner, DH
6. Matt LaPorta, RF
7. Luis Valbuena, 2B
8. Andy Marte, 1B
9. Kelly Shoppach, C
Still no Crede for the Twins, and ESPNews is telling me that Grady Sizemore is done for the year. Enjoy the game, everybody.

When Marthaler recruited me, he said “two hours before first pitch, or I will break you.”

With the way Cuddy's been hitting lately
I don’t see why he isn’t hitting 5th against a lefty.
Peyton's good but have you ever heard of Jeff George?
Stupid work...
Pavano looking good tonight? Exciting game?

No HItter
Sowers has a no-hitter going thru 3. No hitter. No-hitter. No-hitter. Actually, perfect thru 3. (No-hitter) No-hitter.
aj,
I figured I’d catch you this weekend, and so I saved this post until you were sitting down face to face, mano e’ mano?
I was wrong and you were right. I couldn’t review the Redmond catch for a couple of days but when I did it ws clear that the high hop was not an odd, or unexpected high hop – it appeared to be right in line with the expected trajectory. SO, Redmond did have his glove in the wrong position.

I did mention, though, that if he had caught it like he should have, the inning would have ended. =)

Saying LOL never gets old. Or hitting 3 exclamatuion points followed by two number 1's.
I will give you an example.

I can explain.
Imagine someone who is so excited by what they are chatting about that they forget to hold down the ‘shift’ for the last 2 of 5 exclamation points they planned to type, and in thier excitment, do not stop to edit. Its all very exciting.

Sounds like the throw was in the right placed, but Pavano was not in the right spot to get it.
I always loved that one.
3-1, 4-1, ?
Does anybody really know what score it is?
Does anybody really care, about scores?
If so I can’t imagine why,

Once again I hate Fernando Rodney (Det 4 - TB 3)
He lets the Rays score two runs and get one hit from a tie game, then gets the last out. Always getting my hopes up for nothing!

have the picture of someone biting the head off of the rally loon? I think we need to break that one out next game…
