A rain delay set everybody back, but Jim Thome and Francisco Liriano did good work once they got the chance.

Always feels great to beat any team from Wisconsin. Because Minnesota is better. Your thoughts?

Glad they ended the losing streak to the Brewers. Keep it going two more times and sweep that garbage back to Sconny Land.

Let's go for a sweep at home sweet home. Why do the Twins fear Milwaukee like they're the Yankees or something?

For all the crap Mawer has taken, it as good to see him go 3 for 4 with two runs.

Way to go Joe, 3-4, you'll get to .325 yet. On the other hand, the 'when will Mauer rip a shot down the right field line' pool is still alive and well. And, no, a bleader through Fielder's legs doesn't count! Nishi is looking more comfortable each game. Go Twins!

3 Ground ball singles for Mauer (one of which Betancourt misplayed)? Color me unimpressed.
