On this date in 2007: Johan Santana wheels and deals, striking out 17 batters and leading the way to a 1-0 victory over the Texas Rangers. Kevin Millwood allowed a solo shot to Michael Cuddyer for the lone run of the game.

The K parade included a strikeout each by Sammy Sosa and Nelson Cruz, three strikeouts each by Marlon Byrd and Brad Wilkerson, and four strikeouts by Michael Young.

When all said and done, Santana left the mound after the eighth inning allowing only two hits and no walks on 112 pitches. (And no, he did not strike out eight in a row.)

Santana still holds the team record for most strikeouts by one Twins pitcher in a game.

Thor is the 3rd player this year to opt for season-ending surgery. This might become more common as the season remains suspended and players decide to take care of things in a canceled/shortened season to be ready for 2021 and beyond.

Kennys Vargas, new ex-Twin and star of the PR league leading Mayaguez Indios, hit a home run far into the night on the first pitch of the ninth inning. Your correspondent was there. The home run tied the game 1-1, and the Indios went on to walk off the Caguas Criollos later in the inning.

Everyday I love this Willians Astudillo a little more.

Twins got a snow artist to do this the other day I guess. Can't be left out of the SB "fun."

Old song, good song. Whoever put the video together has a great card collection. Tony, The Killer, and Carew

The Twins turned their first triple play singe MAY 27TH, 2006!
