Good thing Polanco is up. If it was Rosario, he'd pop up on the first pitch.

Polanco is showing signs of getting hot again. Poor guy is just atrocious in the field however.

Nice play by Romo. Maybe he should play short?

You can give up a little D as short if he can mash.

You're not fooling anyone, Bremer. You'd rather have Kluber on the shelf than with the Indians

I'll take an error for a 3 run triple all day but his defense is shaky at best

twins win. the twins win.

the dyson, romo, rogers lockdown combo pitched six innings this week and only gave up one run. not too bad. the BP overall pitched 12 innings and only gave up one run.

here's an interesting fun fact. that is the first time the twins have swept the rangers in a four game series on the road or at home in their history. i was pretty surprised to find that out.

Good work, it's tough to sweep a team in a 4 game series, no matter how shitty they are.

Most of the credit should go to the fella who started the series thread.

Pretty good and badly needed weekend. Now they need to take care of business against the shit of the division and put some distance up again.

since the four game sweep fun fact landed with a thud i'll put this out there. i'd have no problem if the romo rogers combination was reversed like it was the other night. rogers the 8th and romo the 9th.

and dyson doesn't need to be giving up game tying bombs either. kind of puts a strain on the bats. polanco took care of that today-but it aint always going to work that way. congrats on your first twins win though.

1 run in 12 relief innings against Texas. I'll take a .75 era from the pen.
