Second base umpire Greg Gibson may or may not have made one of the worst calls in baseball history on a not-so-bang-bang play up the middle with two outs in the 12th inning, but the Twins clearly don't care.

They beat the Royals 9-7 in 12 innings, despite another poor start from Nick Blackburn, and despite Jon Rauch blowing his first save of the season in the 11th. Click here for a complete recap of the action.

You know what though? The Twins had one coming.
