Nice to see Robbie Grossman getting the start in LF... could be the future at that position.

Not exactly the "opening day" line up today

Will be interesting to see these guys together.

This one may go 13-1 the other way. It will be intersting to see what Raynor does today. And Pearce.

Crap! No box score available! What's going on?

I see it. Pirates are being no-hit through four innings. They have walked three times. Morton has a three-hitter with zero walks. The good news is that the Twins have their A-team in. We have our C-Team in. Now as I type this, Charlie will give up four runs and will walk three and ruin my day.

Hey, we got two hits - Grossman and Jaramillo to lead off the fifth. Then Charlie whiffed and Raynor grounded into a DP. So much for the speed guy. :cry:

Thanks for the updates. I still am getting nothing.

Charlie gave up a HR to Kubel. 1-0 Twins after 5.

OK, I got it through the MLB site. I'm impressed with Charlie so far. That's a formidible lineup with some very good LH hitters. One run through 5 innings will do nicely, thank you.

Nice to see Pearce showing some patience at the plate. Two walks against a tough customer Liriano. Obviously laying off the changeup down out of the strike zone.

I think Lopez just walked everyone in the Twins organization, including everyone here in AAA Rochester.... In one inning.
