Come on MN Twins!
Well, the Minnesota Twins just could not pull off their third straight win on last night on Wednesday where they had a 2-1 loss to Baltimore. Maybe it was the heat?
Although there were plenty of promising signs within the loss:
- Trevor Plouffe, third baseman, extended his hitting streak to 16 games. Congrats!
-Francisco Liriano, pitcher, striked out 10 men.
Unfortunately, the Twins just couldn't pull through, even after opening the series with a pair of victories!
Who's going to the game tonight? Come on Twins, turn it around!
Cheer extra loud for us!

Twins vs Orioles!
OH YIKES it is hot out today in the cities! Minnesota weather, what's new?
It is going to be a perfect night to watch the Twins beat Jim Thome and the Baltimore Orioles AGAIN at Target Field! There might be some tension in the air though....... Check out this article about how Twins manager Ron Gardenhire is holding Jim Thome’s 607th homer for ransom! What a jokester!
Good luck tonight, Twins! And stay cool, fans!

Twins Drop Another Extra Inning Game to Rangers
If I was not a born and raised native of Minnesota and had been born in a state without a team to call mine, I think it would have been pretty easy to fall in love with the Rangers. I've always kind of liked them, but have maintained strong loyalties to the Twins, of course.
The Rangers overcame a 3-0 deficit in the 9th to win 4-3 in 13 innings over the Twins. Ian Kinsler lined a game-winning single in the 13th inning for the AL West-leading Texas Rangers.
Cole DeVries pitched seven scoreless innings on a great performance. I love seeing a Twins starting pitcher actually do well. :) Casey Fien followed up with a great performance as well.
The Twins were an out away from shutting out the Rangers at Arlington. That never happens... especially to the Twins. Minnesota had padded a 1-0 lead in the top of the ninth with two unearned runs off Joe Nathan. Then, Kinsler led off the ninth reaching on a two-base throwing error. Glen Perkins threw a wild pitch. Elvis Andrus then had an RBI groundout before Hamilton popped out to third base.
After losing five straight, the Twins managed to give the Rangers back to back 4-3 wins in extra innings. The Rangers are very easy to like. Even when you are on the other side.
Despite my disappointment we didn't at least win the series, I am proud of the Twins for giving the Rangers a run for their money. After all, the Rangers have eight players going to the All Star game. That is almost enough for one team. The Twins have one.
