6:05pm As expected it snowed like a bastard today. I’m sitting inside on my chair as the snow continues to fall outside. It’s not what I was call a picturesque day for baseball but the game will go on nonetheless. Here is the starting lineup for YOUR MINNESOTA TWINS:

CF CARLOS GOMEZ
C JOE MAUER
RF MICHAEL CUDDYER
1B JUSTIN MORNEAU
LF DELMON YOUNG
DH CRAIG MONROE
3B MIKE LAMB
2B BRENDAN HARRIS
SS ADAM EVERETT

6:32pm Torii Hunter steps to the plate. A few boos were heard but for the most part a nice standing ovation for the former Twin. Hunter hasn’t changed as his swings out of the strike zone for pop out to right.

8:43pm Joe Nathan is on for his first save opportunity of the year. 1..2…not quite 3 up 3 down. A dribbler up the third base line causes Nathan to hustle his throw and pull Morneau off the bag. The next man up grounds to short and the Twins win!!! Just the way I predicted…the Twins are on pace for the perfect season.

8:52pm Reporter Jim Rich just interviewed Carlos Gomez and I have no idea what the hell he was saying and I don’t think Jim Rich did either. Got to love the Dominicans.
