Life is good for Twins fans right now. The team is in first place, Joe Mauer is signed, and the new Target Field has been christened with a win. Our Twins blog, Twinkie Town, celebrates a “complete” victory:
Twinkie Town Celebrates A ‘Complete’ Victory
I’m not sure how the Twins could have made this any better than they did. The offense worked Jon Lester and gave Carl Pavano an early lead, they ran well on the bases, the defense made a couple of nice plays and they won. For the first time in 29 years, the Twins won a home game. Outdoors. [...]
It was an exciting day, and I hope you all were able to watch the game. It was history; it’s an odd feeling, watching something and realizing that it’s going to be an important day going forward. But now Target Field is officially christened, and a new era of Twins baseball is underway.
No matter how the game was played, the best thing that could have happened today, actually happened. The Twins won (really, was it even possible for the Red Sox to win today, because it didn’t feel like it). It’s just icing on the cake that the boys played so well.
Enjoy your new home, Twins fans.
