Well, it’s crisis averted, for now. I’m now hitting .365 and have slugged 4 homers since my last post. We also  nearly swept the Twins at their place, but came up short in a rally to end game three of the series. We were down 6-1 when I came to the plate in the eight inning (we scored our first run when I was listening to the announcers talk about a shutout, pissing me off to the point that I blasted a dinger into the left field bleachers. That’ll teach ‘em). We had a runner on first and I hit a single to extend the inning (we had one out at the time). Matt LaPorta knocked me to third and brought in the run to make it 6-2. Later, I scored, along with LaPorta to make it 6-4. We ultimately made it 6-5 before falling short.. Oh well, can’t win ‘em all. Or most of them, for that matter.
