Ron Gardenhire, Twins Approaching 100 Losses



Ron Gardenhire: 'No one ever wants to see 100 losses.' No kidding.

The Twins are slowly crawling to the end of their disastrous season. If Gardenhire had been told during spring training that his team would be closing in on 100 losses, he would have asked what we were smoking.

The Minnesota Twins only have one team in history to reach triple-digit-losses.

Another quote from Gardy, "You have to cope with them (injuries) the best you can. We haven't done a very good job of coping with all the injuries. I read earlier in the season where the Twins didn't have a Plan B. Plan B to replace the whole lineup? I don't think too many teams have that."

Touché.

Twins Win 6-4 Last Night


The Minnesota Twins looked great last night. Sure, Brian Duensing only gave them 5 innings, but that was bound to happen considering he has been pitching so well as of late. The most surprising thing about his performance is that he walked four people since Duensing is known for his control.

"The great thing about baseball is you get to play every day," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. "We just turned the page."

The Twins got a huge go-ahead home run from Luke Hughes in the 5th inning and Matt Capps got his 12th save in 17 chances.

This game snapped the Twins' 6 game losing streak.
