Radke v. Rogers. Do the Twins have a chance today?

There's always a chance, SBG, else there would not be a need to actually play the games. That's why you can still find at least a few fans in the stands at Kauffman Stadium. While an actuary can tell you with pretty good statistical certainty how many 41-79 year old male smokers in Minnesota will die from lung cancer this year, he can't tell you which ones. But our chances today don't look so good.
As if on cue, Radke gives up a first inning homerun.
It's uncanny the ability Radke has to give up 1st inning HRs. It would be interesting to see stats on 1st inning HRs given up by pitchers. This is unbelievable.
He gives 'em up in the second inning, too.
Miller Man,
Uncanny, yes. Ominous, too.
Also of note to today for bashers of our defense, through five complete we have three infield errors.
Good Gravy! White walked AGAIN! And a run scored!
Depressing day, but this boxscore might cheer you up.
Wow. Go Garza!
BTW, SBG, I liked your post title today, despite the Sonny and Cher allusion. It reminds me of the old management adage, "The beatings will continue until morale improves."
Bono was brilliant - playing the stooge to Cher, all the while cultivating and crafting her image. All the more credit since I think he actually wrote the song.
I think that The Edge co-wrote it. Sorry, couldn't help myself.
