Twins fall down a familiar hole but forget to quit

Like Monday, they trailed early after the starter gave up two homers. But this time, they bounced back to rally in 10.

Great comeback win late in the game. When all looked lost once more, it was great to see the Twins pull this one out in NY. Now let's hope this is a swing to more wins! GO TWINS!!

I would like to personally thanks the TWINS, FSN, and DISH NETWORK for personally hosing everyone of your fans/customers. Just another example of how greed has taken over professional sports. My only hope is my boys will grow up enjoying different sports that will not allow them to be emotionally and financially manipulated. As for me, it is too late...

Good medicine for the head case - Joe did what he needs to do, pitching was excellent (save the HRs)... This could be one to build on.

Great come back. Again great relief pitching. Coming home with a 3-4 record against these very good teams is not the end of the world.
