Buxton this year and Castro in 2023.

Before Castro in 2023 Clete Thomas was the last Twin to steal home in 2013.

Wow...knew he did it...wonder who the last twin to do it was. It is a lost art in baseball nowadays.

He played on some very good teams and perhaps gets overshadowed by a few teammates from that era.

Tovar did make the Twins HOF.  Unfortunately passed away at age 54.  I was young.. but I recall him and Zolo V.

Used to fall asleep to the radio call of West Coast Twins games back in those years. I was almost a teenager.

MVP votes 5 seasons in a row! Says a lot when you consider his teammates at the time.

I did as well.  Actually, it was Angels games due to Darin Erstad being from Jamestown, ND and I could pick up KSJB from where I grew up.
