Notebook Dump (Exhibition Game #5)

Game: Twinks 1, Red Sux 2 Box Score Recap Spring Training Record: 4-1 The Quote: "Right now, I think I'm the best centerfielder." - Carlos Gomez. The Notes: The Red Sox's Kevin Youkilis's solo home run off of Craig Breslow was the difference between the Twins remaining perfect in the 2009 Grapefruit League season. If the picture above feels strange that's because it is: In 38.2 innings of work in 2008 in a Twins uniform, Breslow did not allow a home run. It also sounded like this particular one by Youkilis was assisted by the wind according to John Gordon and Dan Gladden on KSTP. Still, with his 40% flyball percentage, it is only a matter of time before a few stray balls find their way over the fence. Better to have happened in spring training.
