Twins somehow survive trying to lose, and beat the Mets in 10. 

Does anyone know what is with Brader's (?) right arm compression sleeve and his left hand oven mitt when he's on base? He looks like he's paying tribute to Macho Man Randy Savage or something....

When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

Buxton you mean? The oven mitt thing is mainly to keep from fingers getting jammed when sliding head first into the bases. It actually also gives them a longer reach to the base too. If that’s what you mean.

Pretty sure it was Brader. 

Edit: yes, it's Bader, who got caught stealing second base late in the game.

He’d wear the mitt for the same reason, just a sliding finger guard thing. The arm sleeve thing is common too. Protection from road rash but could be for a tendinitis prevention or something too.

I knew about the Star Of David belt, so he's not afraid of saying what he has to say, but the whole purple/yellow extra gear, I was really confused. Obviously, haven't had the chance to see much Twins stuff this year.

I don’t think this team could hold a lead if it was handcuffed to them.

The “Law of Unintentional Benefits”, the Twins will save a lot of money on lightbulbs this summer.
