afternoon gents.. happy birthday Auto!

How much you wanna bet Jack that Thome belts at least 2 home runs in this series ? Phillies are on a rut and I hope we take 2 out of three. Cliff Lee is still win less and getting not much run support and Halladay is on the DL for another month or so. Worley just got back from the DL but Hamels has been solid this year and in his contract year. They can't score runs and sure miss the bat of Ryan Howard. But that could change easily since they are playing the twins now.

Happy Birthday auto!!!

p2c = Willingham

streak = Willingham

There ya go for Fluffy ! He hit a home run with a man on base. Him being a 7/ 8th hitter and expect him to hit GSs or men on base is not fair.

3-0 Twins !!

This is a nice offensive showing so far from the boys. Lots of good AB's and when they get their pitch, they are smackin it

Auto having a pretty happy birthday so far

I'd like to see Thome hit a couple tonight, as long as we still lead. Hamels will be tough to beat tommorrow. I can't believe Plouffe. How long will it lasts remains to be seen. But he's in a zone now.

Morneau clicks and streaks.

Three singles in a row and they cut the lead by 2 runs. Funny to see Thome slide at 2B.

Blackburn laboring in the 4th, given up two runs so far this inning. Twins still up 5-2, but lets stop letting those Phillies touch home.

no lead is safe apparently.

blackburn is terrible.

WHAT ? a fair ball ?? Blackburn is worthless !!!

3 runs scored with 2 outs.

Given a 5 run lead and almost gets the game tied. We need more runs.

Blackburn's present to Auto is to make this game an exciting one...

Ah...it's good to see Blackburn's back to form.

""Blackburn laboring in the 4th"" Yep and he has delivered four beautiful RBIs for the Phillies. Carroll almost dumps one over the 2B for a hit. 1 away..

nice drive by joe. thought it was gone.
