Twins ambush Yanks

Once again good pitching beats good hitting, at least for a day. Johann Santana was not at his best, but the rest of the starters were, as 5 double plays upstaged the seemingly uninterested Yanks. Maybe it's just me, but it appears that the Yanks are not to worried about the Twins just yet. And for good reason.

Although the Twins showed more emotion, power and perfection, the field will not be even until they go 2-0 this series. The Yanks are for real, have all the tools, and can turn it on at will. And when Kevin Brown makes his appearance, it will be lights out for the Twins.

But maybe not. These pesky Twins have heart. Tori Hunter has them awake for these playoffs, unlike last year, and they have the Santana-Radke combo, reminding readers of this rag of Koufax-Drysdale. And they have a trump card- Koskie. He stirs the drink for this team.

Tonights game is on ESPN, which fits my home better than FOX. Even with cable, FOX comes in like it did on the farm in the late 60's, continous winter storms!
