…and that fish happens to be a Bottom Feeder and the cookie is a Trevor Hoffman fastball:

You have a 3-1 victory and a seven-game winning steak streak.

On a night when Kevin Slowey pitch six superb and the bullpen wiggled out of trouble, it was Brendan Harris and Brian Buscher who took over the game with home runs on consecutive pitches in the top of the ninth. For Harris, it was a sweet ending to a night of frustration at the plate; Buscher went 2-for-4 and took another step toward full-time status.

It was fun watching Slowey duel Jake Peavy, last year’s Cy Young winner in the NL and a pitcher who changes speeds and throws strikes in dominating style. The Cy Young tour continues tonight against Greg Maddux, with Glen Perkins getting first dibs on getting the win for the Twins.

West Coast baseball can send you to sleep with a smile.
