Yet for some reason the Twins seem to have their number this year.

That's got to change.

But were the ChiSox ever only 1 game back of us?

And, I DO recall some remarks about "meaningless" games early in the season. EVERY game is important.

The Answer;859347 wrote:Agree about Carmona. Pitched very well. Couple grounders just placed in the right spot cost a few runs along with the squeeze. Other then that only 2 or 3 balls were really hit well. ALso the error in the first cost him a run. Hopefully we can get a couple more and take this

way, way, way too inconsistent--he needs to spend a week or so "down on the farm", imo

Shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, displeased with Santana's effort on that play, approached his teammate in the dugout following the inning. A shouting match ensued, and the two had to be separated.

But what appeared to be an ugly confrontation was picturesque to Acta, who lit up with a smile when asked about the spat after the game.

"I like it. That means people around here want to win," Acta said. "Asdrubal just confronted Carlos about not catching the throw, and Carlos didn't like the way he talked to him. That's fire. I like it. People care, and that's all I can ask for."

I agree^^ I loved seeing it. Carlos hit a homer in his next AB I believe as well.

I read where Acta has asked Asdrubel & Pronk to step up as leaders with the trade of O-Cab.

And that's just what Druby was doing. He was being a leader and telling Santana his effort wasn't good enough for a team that is competing for the division.
