Twinkling Twins against Yankees at 03:07
Undermanned and sleep deprived the Twins will have no time to rest after one of the greatest tie breaker games in history. The Twins are the least likely team to make the playoffs in many a year. It would be like the Padres making it as far as I'm concerned that his how little respect I have for the team but they had one hell of a kick and now they get the honor of playing the Yankee's. We shall quickly see if Mo Mo is more important then talent. All of America outside of NY will be rooting for the Twins to make a stand.

I'm rooting for the Rocks over the Phils.
I want to see the NL West do well, after hearing in the beginning of the year how it would be the weakest division in the majors.
And I want Lee to get rattled by the Rocks, just to show all those people chiding the Dodger front office for not acquiring an “ace” how wrong they were and how little it mattered.
Five innings of shutout ball
you really think having Cliff Lee against the Cardinals or Phillies would not have mattered when we are using Padilla in game three?
Perhaps I wasn't clear.
Having Lee in the playoffs is an advantage, no doubt. But if the Dodgers lose this series against the Cards and the Phillies win, we won’t hear the end of how the Dodgers faltered because they didn’t get Lee or a true “ace” despite having made an offer for him.
Had he been rocked today, there is a probability we won’t be hearing any of that.
(Of course, if the Dodgers beat the Cards and make a deep run, none of the above will matter).
Ryan Howard strike outs looking to start the bottom of the 2nd.
I hope manny does not do the same with his first at-bat.
Dodgers finally using blue rally towels.
Wasn’t happy with the white from last year. Really upset I can’t make it today or tomorrow :/
Hawpe makes error
and allows Ruiz to take second. 2 – 0 Phillies with Cliff Lee up and still only one out.
Ouch - bad baserunning by Ruiz
he’s nailed at 3rd, and that makes Cliff Lee run the bases a double boogy.
Jiminez now being rocked 3 - 0
with Howard on 2nd, no outs. Odds are high it will be at least 4 – 0 before long.
Werth triples 4 - 0 Phillies, Jiminez says bye bye
No outs, things are looking bleak for the Rockies.
I have a good feeling that
Los Jankees are going to be upset today. The Twins are going to come in playing hungover, tired and loose.
Just for the hell of it
I am going Twins 7 and the Yanks 5.

Okay - Twin / Yankee's about to start
Good opponent for CC to finally show he can pitch in the playoffs. Soften him up for when he actually faces a major league lineup in the next series.
tiebreaker for manny ramirez contest
should i email you my guess??
thats what we did in the last tiebreaker i was apart of… so the opponent doesnt see the guess…
is there a prize for the winner?
is it the same old prize like blutopia or baseball cards?
Our emails are at the bottom of the True Blue WebSite
The prize is a Manny Ramirez T-Shirt (Not a Jersey)
I get off in about an hour
then I can watch a little bit of this game before band practice. Somehow I have to set up a tv while we are rehearsing during the first part of the Dodgers win.
will arod ever get a hit again in the playoffs
with runners on ??
2run single?
1 run single then passed ball by posada to allow mauer to score from third
