Mauer had an infield hit, but then the throw was off so Mauer runs to second. Torii has an infield hit as Mauer goes to third. Mauer scores from third.

TM is gone. He did a good job.

Let's hope Jesse Crain can keep it at bay.

[Steak]

Tigers lead 4-3.

UGH!

[Steak]

J.C. is on the mound.

He eithers get the batter out or this game is over.

[Lynch]

Wow, crane lasted all of what? One batter!?

*sigh*

[Steak]

Good job by J.C. He keeps it at 4-3 as he K's Pudge Rodriguez.

J.C has been good so far.

Twins gotta score some runs and quick before Twin killer Troy Percival is on the mound to close it out for the Tigers.

Gardenhire is going to be platooning Jesse and J.C. a lot this year. I think it's stupid. Jesse needs to learn to get these guys out. It would have been nice to have him get Infante out, but it did not work out.

I was okay with platonning tonight though because he wanted to keep it at 4-3. It worked. I just hope Jesse can have a chance to finish this inning.

[Steak]

Twins come up lame in the seventh.

We head to the eighth.

[Steak]

Nice job by J.C. tonight

3 Ks tonight.

Twins big hitters coming up. To me, the eighth is do or die IMO.

[Steak]

Back-to-back walks by Ugueth Urbina.

Let's hope we can score and get some runs with Joe Nathan ready to go in the ninth.
