Yankees.com: Yanks can’t catch Twins after Kuroda stumbles
t was a discouraging encore performance at home for Kuroda, who threw eight shutout innings against the Angels last Friday. He was responsible for 10 of Minnesota’s 12 hits, and all six of the Twins’ runs.
Twins slugger Justin Morneau tagged Kuroda for two homers, the second one knocking New York’s starter out of the game. Minnesota has won two of three games in the set after entering the series with a 5-28 record in the Bronx since 2002.
This series is now officially a disappointment, and a Phil Hughes start away from being a disaster.

Gardner to DL. This team just lost their 3rd best position player.
Relax. We’ve already avoided the sweep, and no matter what happens we’ll go into Boston at least a game up. That means we’ll come out of Boston no worse than 2 down, and that ain’t bad.
Gardner seems pretty injury prone.
Joe mentioned playing Nunez in the OF.
and a Phil Hughes start away from being a disaster.
That isn’t very far.
This little ditty sums up my feelings regarding the 2012 NYY.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzc5vW9Ze44&feature=related
April is the cruelest month except October.
I expect a marked improvement from Hughes tomorrow
5 IP - 8 runs!
Blech.
