Twins bats come alive against Angels

The Twins started a three game series against the Angels on friday and going into the series the Twins were struggling. They hadn't scored many runs and weren't getting many hits. Friday nights game seemed like the Twins hadn't got the bats going but then came the bottom of the 8th inning. Going into the inning the Twins were down 9 to 4. After a couple of hits and some walks the Twins were only down by two, then the Angels walked Justin Morneau to load the bases. Jason Kubel came up just a home run away for the cycle, then on the second pitch Kubel drilled the ball into the upper deck for a grand slam and completed the cycle. The home run put the Twins up 11 to 9 and that was the final score. Then Saturday nights was more of the same. The Twins bats continued to be hot. The Twins had a big fifth inning to get a comfortable lead then the reast of the game the Twins just padded their lead to win 9 to 2. Now they finish up the series today with a game starting at 1 pm.
