The Twins got a great start from Kevin Slowey, and Delmon Young's three-run jack was the difference in the team's 4-2 win.

ur for four with two runs and an RBI.
The bullpen had a great game, making up for a poor start by Kevin Slowey, who allowed six runs in three and two-thirds innings. The pen allowed no runs in seven and one-third innings. The winner was Matt Guerrier, who lost the second game in Fenway Park -- when the Twins were up three runs.

Most people would've said Kevin Slowey vs. Ben Sheets would be a pitching mismatch. They were right.
But few would've predicted that Slowey would be the dominant starter and Sheets would prove vulnerable.

Tonight it was Kevin Slowey, who outdueled Jake Peavy, though he didn't figure in the decision. Slowey allowed only four hits over six innings, and then the Twins bullpen did the rest.
Slowey retired 14 straight batters after a pair of singles in the first. Though San Diego has not been a good team this season, that's pretty good.

But you have to start with the starter, Kevin Slowey. He allowed eight runs in three innings and his ERA rose to 5.15. You'd think at least that the bullpen would slow the bleeding. But not this year. Juan Rincon allowed four runs in two innings, and his ERA is now 6.11.

They lost to some guy named Radhames Liz, who was 1-5 at AAA. They had only six hits. Kevin Slowey had a poor outing and fell to 2-5.
Everyone knows the Twins rotation is green. Those young starters will have to pitch well for the Twins to win games consistently and challenge for the division title. The great bullpen, a bit thinner without Pat Neshek, won't help if the starters don't do well.

The Twins instead will need Boof Bonser, Kevin Slowey and Scott Baker to shoulder more of the load, especially until Liriano has the confidence to become the ace that he was on track to be befo

But if at least two of the Twins young pitchers, a group that includes Bonser, Scott Baker, Kevin Slowey, and Nick Blackburn can emerge as reliable six to seven inning starters, it will go a long way to stabilizing the rotation, and protecting the bullpen, which figures to be one of the strengths of the team.
