Sorry, Folks From Iowa (Twins-Phillies Series Recap, 8/13-8/16)

Send us Fan Mail

After looking as if they might salvage a victory in this three-game series, the Minnesota Twins get swept by the Philadelphia Phillies: one game in Iowa and two more at Target Field. David, who was in Iowa for its state fair, sees the Minnesota State Fair as far better than what Iowa offered. Dan is convinced that he must make a trip to the Field of Dreams at some point, even if the Twins aren't playing there. Both of them are still hopeful about the Twins' chances considering the schedule ahead, and they are curious to see who gets called up to take Austin Martin's spot after the outfielder injured his hamstring on Sunday. Thanks for listening, and go Twins!
