Well that rally ended in an awful hurry. After Mauer's double scored Span, cutting the lead to 2, we had 2nd and 3rd with with nobody out.

Then Willingham, Morneau and Plouffe went down on a grand total of 4 pitches.

Blech.

If Willingham hits or even grounds out to the opposite field, the Twins tie this game up. I'm just saying. Not advancing Mauer lost this.

I'm a butterfly effect guy. First, you can also say that if Willingham singles to left the game is tied. And, even if he grounds out to 2B (which would annoy me to no end if he just gave himself up like that) and Mauer advances to 3B, maybe Morneau doesn't fly out... or maybe he hits a double. Who knows?

It also did not help that the Twins scored only one run in the first 8 innings.

Off a lousy pitcher.

They were intimidated by the mullet.
