Suzanne Solheim, known to her friends as Sooze, is head over heels for the Minnesota Twins, and baseball in general. When she's not enjoying a hot dog and a cold one at the ballpark, you can find her swooning over changeups, double plays and juicy trade rumors here and at her blog, Babes Love Baseball. She currently resides in St. Cloud, where she attends St. Cloud State University.

A day after the Twins dropped Game 1 of their two-game set with Chicago by a score of 5-2, Carl Pavano will climb the mound with a 3-2 record and 2.86 ERA in 5 career starts against the White Sox.  Meanwhile, John Danks is 4-5 with a 5.13 ERA in 14 games against Minnesota.

Joe Mauer, who went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in his reemergence at catcher yesterday, and Justin Morneau each have a .345 lifetime average (10-for-29) against Danks.  While the Canadian Crusher has hit three bombs off the right-hander, Michael Cuddyer has nailed five with a .515 career average (17-for-33) and 11 RBI.   Watch out for those guys, along with Jason Kubel, who's driven in nine runs on 7 hits with 3 doubles and a longball of his own off Danks.
