What a difference 24 hours makes for the Twins. This time last night, they had lost to Oakland and lost a game in both the division and wild card races, and Francisco Liriano looked like he might be facing Tommy John surgery, meaning "see you in 2008."
But this morning we got news that Liriano's MRI showed no structural damage- he's still out for the season, and the cause of the injury is mysterious, but he's not looking at the year off. Meanwhile, the Twins went out tonight and beat Cleveland 9-4, both scoring lots of runs and coming through in the clutch. They're now just one game behind Detroit for the Central lead, and 2 ahead of the White Sox for the wild card.
How about two good days in a row? Is that asking for too much?
