BAL takes 2 of 3 from MIN

Two very fine, one run games and one slaughter by the Twins.

Game 1:  Mudcat Grant and Juan Guzman lock up in a pitching dual.  Winning run scores in the bottom of the 7th on a Robby Alomar RBI single.  
Final Bal 2 Minn 1
 
Game 2:  Twins return home and tear up Sidney Ponson scoring 6 runs against him in 1 1/3 innings.  This one was over before it started as the Twins bats came alive!  
Final Minn 9 Bal 2

Game 3:  Pits Mike Mussia vs Jim Kaat.  Twins continue hot hitting as the first two hitters against Mussina go deep posting the Twins to the early 2 run lead.  Orioles claw back to a tie over the next two innings before Twins reclaim a 1 run lead on a Lenny Webster passed ball.  In the 7th Alomar and Ripken drive in 1 each with RBI singles to close out the scoring.  
Final Bal 4 Minn 3.

Fun series,

Mark
