Our old friend, #SmellBaseball, toed the rubber for the Twins tonight, and pitched a beauty. He struck out five and gave up seven hits, and ended up throwing under 100 pitches in his complete game effort. An Adonis Garcia home run in the 2nd and a Jace Peterson GIDP to score A.J. Pierzynski in the 3rd were the only things that marred his night.
Astonishingly enough, the Braves were able to top Santana with a Harrell/Cabrera/Cervenka/Withrow/Johnson combination. They combined to throw 142 pitches, but shut the Twins out and limited them to five hits.
