Minnesota Twins prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez had the type of moment you dream about. In a winner-take-all playoff game, he came to bat with the bases loaded and sent a grand slam out into the dark of the Cedar Rapids night. The Kernels won, giving them their first Midwest League Championship since 1994. Up on the big club, Willi Castro continued his magical season with another dose of pure chaos. He led an impressive Twins comeback to win both Wednesday’s game against the Reds and the series in Cincinnati.
