Pirates

The Twins improved to 10-2 after downing the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2 Wednesday night. Randy Dobnak threw 6 shutout innings to get the win for the Twins. Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON today. Jim says Dobnak will have opportunities to pitch with the Twins even if injured starters Jake Odorizzi, Rich Hill and Homer Bailey are healthy.

The Twins won 5-4 at home against Pittsburgh Monday night after falling behind 4-0. Nelson Cruz hit the walk-off single with less than 2 outs and first base open. Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON today. He was surprised Pittsburgh chose to pitch to Cruz with Miguel Sano on-deck.
