With his pitch count rising in the sixth inning, he walked two batters and then he ran into the reigning National League MVP.

After 3 more games, we will be exactly at the midpoint. We have a number of stellar playe...533Fri, 15 Jun 2012 21:06:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/twins-minor-league/beloit-clinches-first-playoff-spot-since-2007-r532/On Thursday night, the Beloit Snappers beat Peoria 5-3.
