On the heels of a frustrating loss a couple days earlier, the Minnesota Twins throw away Game 2 of a series with the San Diego Padres and end up winning just one of three where David and Dan are quite sure the Twins could have left with another victory. They place the blame pretty squarely at the feet of manager Rocco Baldelli, whose bullpen management was cautious at best during the middle game. David, though, has heaps of praise for the turnaround of Christian Vazquez, and Dan has a film comparison for seemingly everything David has to say. They discuss the strong performance by Austin Martin, a better showing from Eddy Julien and another monster home run from Matt Wallner. They look around the league at the retirement of a Cincinnati Reds staple and at the resurgence of those darn Houston Astros. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
