"On Sunday, during an interview on WSCR (670 AM), White Sox bullpen coach Juan Nieves talked about how he would like to see his team respond to the Twins' recent dominance over them -- the Sox had lost 19 of the previous 25 games between the clubs heading into Tuesday's game. "'There's nothing that would please me more than having a brawl with them and kicking their rear,'' Nieves said. "I've even thought of telling guys, 'Hey [Matt] Thornton, smoke [Joe] Mauer, see if you can start a fight. We're not afraid of anybody. I mean, I don't care if we have to do anything. ... If we can't beat 'em, might as well fight 'em. I'm a firm believer in that."'" – StarTribune
