Hanging By a Thread

The Twins stand 2.5 games out of first (3 games back in the loss column). The White Sox take on the Royals and the Twins play at the Rays. It's Slowey vs Kazmir. The Twins really need a win and a Sox loss to stay alive. Luckily Slowey was injured earlier in the year and isn't at such a high innings pitched number as Blackburn and Perkins who seem to have pitched too much.
