Sorry Twink, I know you got a winning streak going, but the game has started.

Revere lead off the game with a base hit, now a 19 game hitting streak and he has also stole second.

Lineups quickly...

Revere has continued his hitting streak today with a first inning single.

A little surprise, but then again would he really fit into the picture in the future?

I don't think it looked like it...

Yeah he seemed to be passed by Plouffe. This kid seems pretty interesting that the got in return.

From an ESPN Boston Blog:

"Pineda, an athletic 21-year-old center fielder out of the Dominican Republic, is leading the Rookie-Level Gulf Coast League in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage, OPS, hits, and total bases. "

Twins can't cash in again...Mastroianni picked off of first and Mauer is back to the feeble ABs...looks like the slump is still here.

And Blackburn starting to get hit a little bit as well. Two hits and an RBI groundout for Crawford and the Sox are on top 1-0.

A Ric Flair into center, and its 2-0 Sox. Blackburn needs a double play big time.

I see the Twins winning this game around 6-4.

Interesting...let's hope you're right.

Twins score one run so far in the 5th without a hit. Casilla lead off walk, steals second, moves over on the Carroll groundout, then Revere hits a sac fly. 2-1 Sox.

A-Gon hits one pretty close to where Mauer's was, and its 4-1 Sox.

liriano just took one off the knee and is out of the game, was throwing a scoreless game up to that

Ouch, I hope he is ok, I would hate to see him get injured.

my mistake, he was definitely hurting and the manager came out twice but i guess he soldiered on and is still in

Great Manship is in.

What an amazing play there by Casilla! He showed some serious range there!
