Rocco Baldelli Has a Lot of Feelings Regarding the Minnesota Twins’ Tangy Rally Sausage

Suddenly, after winning seven games in a row, the Minnesota Twins look like a legitimate MLB team again. Now, some pessimists out there might say the Twins’ surge is simply the product of playing bad teams.

A week of winning!

Last Sunday, the morale surrounding the Minnesota Twins ball club could not have been more stagnant after a collapse in Detroit, being swept in Baltimore, and again succumbing to the Big Cats at the homestead.

This past week, the wretched White Sox provided a respite—but was it for real or an incompetence-induced mirage? Well, though the Los Angeles Angels didn’t exactly field a defense of Ozzie Smith’s out there, I...

Is Mike Trout the next Ernie Banks?

First Pitch: 3:07 PM CT TV: Bally Sports North Radio: TIBN Know Thine Enemy: Halos Heaven (sadly a dead community, but you can see what they were excited about in spring of 2022!)

With the Minnesota Twins playing some late-night—or in today’s case late-afternoon—West Coast baseball, they’ve once again occupied the orbit of one of baseball’s brightest stars: Mike Trout. Sadly, the...

Twins 16, Angels 5: A is for Ambush

Minnesota makes it six in a row in decisive fashion.

No need to dress it up; as boos rained down on the Big A like a homophonous bourbon storm, the vibes were riding high in the Minnesota Twins dugout. An early outburst turned into a SoCal massacre, and a few ticks from midnight central, the Twins had walked away with a cathartic 16-5 victory.

Racking up nearly 20 hits, the Twins saw each starter earn at least a base knock, with the offense scoring in...

Twins 5, Angels 2: Bailey neat, bullpen on the rocks in nervous Twins victory

What was a pretty easygoing game became... much less so.

One of the best starts of Bailey Ober’s young career suddenly got REALLY STRESSFUL when he left, with a stressed Twins bullpen giving Anaheim fans every chance to get excited. Rather mostly through blind BAbip luck, Minnesota pulled it off, and have their first five-game winning streak of the season.

Mike Trout: good. Everyone else: bad.

Anaheim is a wonderful city with a beautiful ballpark, near-perfect weather year-round, and a bad baseball team that has wasted the careers of two of the best players in MLB history. Can’t have everything, I suppose.

They lost their crown jewel in two-time MVP Shohei Ohtani, who made his way up the 5 to play for the Dodgers, but Mike Trout is healthy and hitting like it’s 2017 again. Let’s get into it....

The greatest Twins commercials of all-time

A Mad Men-inspired trip down Twins advertising memory lane

In between work hours, travel to other ballparks, and existential crises over a slow Minnesota Twins start to 2024, I’ve recently begun a full series re-watch of Mad Men—one of my all-time favorite shows. As I watch Don Draper and his gang of caddish day-drinkers sell the American Dream, it got me thinking about the best Twins commercials.

From the early 2000s to the first few years of...

Twins aim to continue power display in opener vs. Angels

The Minnesota Twins set aside their slow start with a four-game sweep of the worst team in baseball. After easily dispatching the Chicago White Sox, the Twins will face another struggling team Friday night when they open a three-game series against the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim, Calif.

Thanks, White Sox!

This series couldn’t come at a better time for the Twins as they continued to take advantage of one of the worst teams in the league. After getting dominated and mounting a late comeback yesterday, the Twins got to starter Garret Crochet early and never looked back.

Christian Vázquez got the scoring started for Minnesota on a bloop hit single to right with runners at second and third, bringing in Carlos Santana. Willi Castro...
