The Twins are slowly looking like the team that will end up taking the AL Central crown this year, even though their record still stands at 4-5 after a 3-2 extra inning win over the Blue Jays in a battle of the domed teams on Tuesday. How is it that the Twins have already played 9 games when everyone else has played only 7 or 8? Anyway, we got a great performance last night from starter Glen Perkins, and also 3 perfect innings of relief from Joe Nathan and Jesse Crain. Justin Morneau had a 3 for 5 night and Denard Span picked up his third stolen base of the season.
