The Twins have 4 players selected to play in the World Baseball Classic. The four are catcher Joe Mauer (USA), relief pitcher Glen Perkins (USA), first baseman Justin Morneau (Canada) and catcher Drew Butera (Italy). The World Baseball Classic will be played in March of 2013.
September 24, 2012 Even thought there is not much to play for other than pride, it's still nice to see the Twins sweep Detroit in the doubleheader.
The Twins beat the Tigers 10-4 in the afternoon game and then barely won 2-1 in 10 innings in the night game

The baseball God's were not looking out for the Twins today as they lost to the Cleveland Indians 4-3 in 10 Innings.
Casey Kotchman had the game winning single off of Twins reliever Anthony Swarzak in the 10th to take the win for the Indians. I
August 24, 2012 The Twins lost 10-6 last night against Texas, their 3rd straight loss. Not a very good streak to have this late in the season.
The Rangers had 6 runs in the 8th inning to break the 4-all tie
August 23, 2012 CoCo Crisp was 3-3 yesterday and had a home run and 2 RBI's in Oakland's win over the Twins. It didn't help that Liam Hendriks allowed 6 hits and 4 earned runs in 5 innings to get the loss for the Twins

The Twins lost game two game of this three-game series yesterday in Oakland. A's starter Brett Anderson allowed just 4 hits and 1 earned run in 7 innings to get the win for Oakland against the Twins
August 16, 2012 The Twins lost 5-1 yesterday at Target Field to the Detroit Tigers and with that loss the Tigers win the series. I was actually so hopeful that we could take the series from Detroit. Joe Mauer did his best and was 2-4 with 1 RBI
August 14, 2012 The Twins ended their four-game loosing streak last night against the Detroit Tigers with a convincing 9-3 win. Whether the Twins have a fighting chance to get into playoffs is yet to be seen, still it's nice to see a big win at home against a big team like Detroit
August 13, 2012 The Twins could not keep it together and lost to the Rays yesterday 7-3 in the 1oth inning. Worse than that they were swept in this 3-game series.

August 8, 2012 I like to see other teams on the skids rather than our beloved Minnesota Twins, and that is what we saw last night as the Twinkies handed the Indians their 11th loss.
The Twins came from behind 5-4 going into the 9th when they turned up the heat and added 4 runs to win 7-5
August 7, 2012 The Twins just came off of winning the series against the Red Sox this weekend and have opened up a can of whoop-ass on the Indians last night in the first game of this series. With the pounding the Twins put on Cleveland last night the Indians loosing streak goes to 10 games
August 6, 2012 It's great when the Twinkies can win a series, but it's even better when it's the Red Sox that get the loss. Just like the Chicago White Sox I despise the Boston Red Sox. Do you think this has anything to do with teams with sox in their name? Maybe I have deep issues that stem from some sort of tragic event that happened with socks when I was young? I think there are too many issues to start trying to figure that out, so let's talk baseball instead
