The Twins played in their first interleague series this weekend and it was eventful to say the least. The Twins won 2 out of the 3 games. On Friday night, Scott Diamond continued to be excellent and won his 3rd game of the season, making him 3-0. He also picked up his first big league hit and run scored. Saturday the game was more of a pitchers duel and the Twins ended up winning the game on a Trevor Plouffe home run in the 11th inning. The game on Sunday was a painful one for the Minnesota Twins, but it was entertaining in a weird way. The Twins didn't score a lot of runs and the Brewers did. A few good things came out of the game though, Mauer was 4-for-5 and Ben Revere continued his hot hitting. My personal favorite part of the game was that Drew Butera pitched! The Twins were being crushed and Butera pitched a scoreless inning, getting a strikeout and topping off at 94 MPH.

Home sweet home? Well not really, the Twins are heading to Chicago, but they have had a lot of success in Chicago the last few season's, including Francisco Liriano's no-no last May.
And some of you may of noticed that a few things changed on my website, I'm not really sure why, but the fonts and such changed so they might be changing more often as I play around with the different options..
