Kubel Caps Off Cycle With Grand Slam!

What a night for Jason Kubel! In the bottom of the 8th inning, the Angels intentionally walked Justin Morneau to load the bases for Kubel. I don't think the Angels will repeat that strategy any time soon. Jason Kubel absolutely destroyed an 0-1 pitch from Jason Bulger for a grand slam to cap off a cycle. Does it get any better than that?! What a comeback by the Twins, who looked dead in the water when they were down 9-4. Kubel's grand slam capped off a tremendous comeback, Joe Nathan pitched his usual 1-2-3 ninth, and the Twins were victorious, 11-9. This is the type of game that could get the Twins, who were really slumping this past week, on a roll. The Twins are really missing Joe Mauer, but if they can start playing well before he gets back in a couple weeks, then the return of Mauer can just give them an added boost and continue the momentum. Huge victory for the Twins last night. Congratulations, Mr. Kubel. YES!!!
