Tuesday's Game 9/18

Because of the length of the last post and a few announcements, I decided to put Tuesday's preview as a new entry. As you may have noticed, there is a new feature on the right side of the page, the game ball. Each game it will be awarded to the player who gave the Twins the best chance to win the game. Also, Twin #2 has officially joined the team and will be posting in the future. So if you're tired of my writing, hang in there, for it will change.


In the game, Carlos Silva (11-14, 4.44) will start against Kevin Millwood (9-12, 5.51). In his last start against the Twins, Millwood suffered the loss opposite Johan Santana's 17 strikeout performance by giving up 4 hits, 5 walks, and one earned run in seven innings. The Twins will probably need to do more than that, and hopefully will. I would still really like to see the Twins finish above .500 again this year.
