Spring Training Game.

The Twins won their final spring game (except for tomorrow's intrasquad game) to extend their winning streak to 6 games. Kyle Lohse finished his solid spring with a win. In Michael Cuddyer's first game after his oblique injury, he went 2 for 4 with a HR. He still hopes to win the RF position.

Joe Mauer was 4 for 4 today after getting 3 hits in yesterday's game. Morneau and Castillo each had 2 hits.

The Twins will play AAA Rochester tomorrow at Hammond Stadium before leaving for Toronto for Tuesday's opener.
