It wasn't exactly the series the Minnesota Twins hoped for, but perhaps it was the sort of series the team's fans have come to expect, as the New York Yankees swept three games from the Twins at Target Field. And after a Ryan Jeffers Game 1 home run, the Twins scored zero runs -- not the sort of offensive output the team had been putting together lately. David and Dan run through the many miscues in the outfield, namely those by Willi Castro, who both of them believe to be miscast in the role of backup centerfielder. David shares his observations from sitting in a sea of Yankees fans in Game 2, and Dan wonders whether this Twins team could actually win a couple games in New York in a few weeks, assuming a few key players get healthy. They look at the argument as to whether Chris Paddack was tipping his pitches in Game 1, and they bemoan the continuing saga that is MLB television coverage. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
