With the season not even at the half way point, Twins fans have already been through the roller-coaster of ups and downs that true fans have come to associate with Twins baseball. With some pre-season success in the exhibition games I was hoping that this would be our season, and then spring rolled in and we had pitching issue after pitching issue and we couldn't seem to pull it together at all on the road starting the season with a 4-14 record on the road.
But times may be changing again, our Twins have managed to win 6 of the last 9 road games and are heading into a 4th of July weekend series at the Metrodome against the Detroit Tigers who lost their last on the road series against Houston. Leaving this Twins fan to wonder, have we gotten our Road Mojo back?
I think that the combination of winning last week, the smell of domedogs, and the roar of the home-town crowd will be enough to pull out another winning series, something that the team and fans both need! With the record over the .500 mark (41-39) I certainly hope that the next set of games in the Dome will only help that number climb!
Tune in between 4th of July BBQ's this weekend to watch the Twins at home:
July 3rd @ 7:10, Twins vs. Detroit
July 4th @ 3:10, Twins vs. Detroit
July 5th @1:10, Twins vs. Detroit

I hope that you are right... It is getting frustrating that they can not win on the road, we needed a good away series!
The game on the 3rd was disappointing but it they pulled it together for the last two games in the series, hope this is the start of a trend
It was crowded down at the Dome for these games this last weekend! And another week of GREAT Twins games this week - Yankees Tuesday thru Thrursday and White Sox Friday thru Sunday! Go Twins!
