DAIRY QUEEN FOR EVERYONE AFTER THE GAME TONIGHT! This was the most painful loss of the season to date. All those runners on 2nd and 3rd...surely you can push one or two across the plate? Bases loaded? That was pathetic. But, the worst moment of the game was the post-game interview with Rocco.

They've been accused of being lifeless and sloppy, and they're not beating the allegations. On a night when the Twins had their ace on the mound and a sense of urgency in their dugout, fans were left with a worst-case scenario.
