They are 9-4, giving them pretty good lead in the American League standings.
I'm still on the edge about Richards. He started today and I thought he struggled a bit, giving up a couple of runs and a few walks. I'm not entirely sure hif e's going to be a help or a hindrance for the pitching rotation.
As for hitting, the Red Sox only had one hit and one walk through seven innings. It wasn't until the top of the eighth inning that the bats came alive and they tied the game 3-3.
The ninth inning was a bust for the Red Sox but not for the Twins. The first batter hit a single, the second batter was hit by a pitch, the third batter struck out and the fourth batter hit a blop into center that drove in the winning run.
The final score was 4-3 Twins.
Tomorrow's game against the White Sox is at home. The weather for the 7:00pm start does not look promising. Temps around 40° and a steady light rain. I suspect tomorrow will be a bust and there will be another double header in their future.
The Bruins are taking on the Islanders at 7:00 this evening. I should be able to make it through all three periods as long as the Bruins are playing well.
They made some moves at the trade deadline and picked up a couple of decent players. Hall came over from the Sabres and in my opinion, he brings a kickass attitude and set of legs that move him around the ice pretty damned well. He played in Tuesdays game against the Sabres and I was impressed.
I'm hoping tonight is a pretty good game to watch
Time to fire up the electric grill and enjoy some steaks for dinner. After that, it'll be hockey time.
