@DMEASrecruiting what a game!

[The Twins Almanac @TwinsAlmanac]

Torii Hunter, Corey Koskie, and Jacque Jones hit two home runs each in the Twins’ first-ever game at new Miller Park in Milwaukee on this date in 2001. Doug Mientkiewicz, Koskie, and Hunter went back-to-back-to-back in the third inning.

It was @ToriiHunter48’s fourth consecutive game with multiple extra-base hits, tying a team record set by Matt Lawton just three days earlier. Remarkably, they are still the only two such streaks in team history, and they overlapped!

@shegone03 @MLB All that matters is cold, hard, cash… and this is not a moral judgement, that’s all that has EVER mattered to the team owners…

Tremendous!

[The Twins Almanac @TwinsAlmanac]

The American League only carried two catchers for the All-Star Game on this date in 1988, and both were Minnesota high school graduates. Tim Laudner doubled in his only at-bat, and Terry Steinbach was the game's MVP.

AL starter @FrankViola16 didn't allow a baserunner.

@RpsAgainstTrump There exist two people familiar with her thinking..?

@Kevins_Right @Ilhan Victory laps taken by politicians are the veritable definition of self-serving behavior… it’s too bad “we” have normalized this conduct (actually, as you suggest, we expect this conduct…)

[George Rownd @GeorgeRownd]

@Kevins_Right @Ilhan Governing is not a sporting event- their are no “victory laps”, as no legislator is a victor… the elected officials are supposed to be public servants (those were the days…)

@tlschwerz Bad loss, but reinforces the need to sell - how about the try to win a World Series in four years..?

[George Rownd @GeorgeRownd]

If the Twins lose because of the imaginary balk call…that’s a bad loss @Patrick_Reusse

@Ourlady77 @gtconway3d No one “supports” abortion… the political issue is whether the government should criminalize the procedure… should a government official be in the room when this incredibly personal issue is discussed..?

@bloisolson Nonsense! This is a capitalist society- all holidays should be on Saturday or Sunday, with no additional days off (If we allow any holidays at all)!!! Work work work!
