Closing out a three-city road trip, the Minnesota Twins take two out of three games from the Seattle Mariners and head home 10 games over .500. But David and Dan see the series very differently, with Dan erring on the side that Lady Luck was out to get the Twins, whereas David sees the Twins as the lucky ones considering just how poorly they played in the field. They can agree, though, that the Twins' offense has come alive, with a rejuvenated Byron Buxton, a sound-swinging Jose Miranda and a fire-throwing Joe Ryan who was so intimidating Luis Castillo didn't even swing when standing in the batter's box. They look at the many questionable choices made by Rocco Baldelli, and they look around the league standings as the MLB reaches the midpoint of its regular season. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
