The Oakland A's come for their last visit to the Dome starting Friday. The last time these teams met, the Twins had just won 2/3 from Texas in Arlington and looked like they were ready to make a run at the top of the division. Some sloppy play and questionable calls by umpires cost the team at least one win and more likely 2. That series seems to have started the team on its march toward a .500 season.
Friday, Clayton Mortenson starts for the A's against Nick Blackburn.
Saturday, Brett Anderson goes against Jeff Manship.
Sunday, Gio Gonzalez faces Brian Duensing.
Again I have to say it. I hope the pitching continues to be decent and the bats wake up.
