The Twins were shut out an AL-leading ninth time Tuesday. A rundown of the lack of runs:

APRIL 7, AT CHICAGO WHITE SOX, 3-0

Opposing starter: Javier Vazquez, 6 2/3 IP, 1 H, 4 BB, 5 K

Skinny: Vazquez has had his way with the Twins this year (22 2/3 IP, 1.59 ERA).

MAY 4, VS. BOSTON, 2-0

Opposing starter: Tim Wakefield, 7 IP, 3 H, 3 BB, 2 K

Skinny: David Ortiz hit a sixth-inning homer off Carlos Silva to break a scoreless tie.

MAY 10, VS. CHICAGO WHITE SOX, 3-0

Opposing starter: Jose Contreras, 9 IP, 5 H, 1 BB, 4 K

Skinny: This came before Contreras and the White Sox both tanked.

MAY 17, AT CLEVELAND, 2-0

Opposing starter: Fausto Carmona, 9 IP, 4 H, 2 BB, 4 K

Skinny: Carmona, awful as a reliever in 2006, has been brilliant as a starter in '07.

JUNE 2, AT OAKLAND, 1-0

Opposing starter: Joe Blanton, 9 IP, 3 H, 0 BB, 6 K

Skinny: Twins never had a runner get past first base in a game that took 1 hour, 49 minutes.
