Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look at the weekend in sports.

The Twins had just 28 hits on a six-game road trip against AL Central foes Chicago and Cleveland. They're still in first place, but the gap between their excellent pitching and suspect hitting continues to get wider.

Reusse reacts to the lack of firm commitment from Wolves boss Tim Connelly, worries about his pal Tom Thibodeau's Knicks and notes Seattle's scoring outburst against Dallas.

And a finish with a high note: Gophers softball.
