Twin Win vs. Twins

For those of you who follow us, sorry for the last few days' absence. We've been fighting viruses on a daily basis, but, hopefully, have chemo'ed the problem and here we are again! During our absence, Sox lost a pair to the Twinkies, and then have come back with W's in the last two, including today's in support of Dice's pitching. After giving up a trey in the first inning, the Diceman firmed up and the Hose bats hosed Twins hurlers to the tune of 14 hits, along with Jake's tenth swipe of the year. This barrage, included three two-baggers, a trip by Crawford and Gonzo's 4th homer of the year. While I'm on the subject, in case anyone has noticed, Crawford's recent output has gotten him back over the Mendoza and he's really producing! The three-bagger today is just the latest example of what the Sox hoped to be buying when they pulled the trigger in the off-season.Speaking of coming around, have you been watching Yoouukk, Papi and Jake? The first pair each had two hits today, including Yoooouuukk's double, and Jake, beside the swipe I mentioned earlier, was 3-5, with a solid double.
We're still two below .500, but I think this team will be okay as they continue on.

Oh, just hot off the tube: Lakers LOSE by 36!!SWEEP!! Now for the Celtics to beat Miami and go for their 18th!
