...And That's When it All Came Crashing Down Upon Us

By David Jensen

The Minnesota Twins are in big trouble. After dominating the Angels in the first game of the year, the Twins have looked like the worst team in the AL since. Tonights loss sends them below .500 to a 1-2 mark. In Tuesday nights game, the they put on a clinic of poor pitching, bungling defense and inept hitting in key situations. California rolled over Bonser and the Twins 9-1. On Wednesday night, they were again completely lost at the plate as Joe Saunders shut them down for eight innings. The two game skid puts them a distant 1.5 games behind Cleveland and Kansas City. From what we've seen the last two nights, Minnesota will be very fortunate if they don't smash the 1962 Mets record for losses in a season.
