The Twins Are On TV Today. Here's Your Visual Scavenger Hunt.
Fox Sports North will broadcast today's Twins game against the Marlins, live at 12:05 from Hammond Stadium. It's FSN's first broadcast of the spring, and for those of us who couldn't make a March trip to Fort Myers, it's our first look at the team in 2011.
Award yourself the appropriate number of points if you see any of the following things on today's broadcast:
Joe Mauer wearing a full uniform: 1 point
- Wearing catcher's gear: 2 points
- Wearing a pirate hat and/or eyepatch: 7 points
La Velle E. Neal III in the press box: 1 point
- On the field before the game: 2 points
- In line at the concessions stand while the game is going on: 5 points
- Trying to explain to fans that he's not Al Newman: 11 points
Brian Dinkelman: 1 point
- But you identified him without seeing his name and number of the back of his jersey: 8 points
Any evidence that Dick Bremer or Bert Blyleven is not wearing shoes: 2 points
- Not wearing pants: 6 points
- Not wearing a shirt and either smoking a cigar or eating a meatball hoagie: 14 points
Tsuyoshi Nishioka with his translator: 1 point
- With Ray Chang: 2 points
- With Ray Chang while Denard Span looks bewildered: 19 points
Jim Kaat: 1 point
- While clearly telling a raunchy story about his playing days to Justin Morneau: 9 points
- While sitting on Morneau's lap: 24 points
Any shot that shows at least two Canadians: 2 points
- Bonus points for degree of difficulty if the two Canadians are Rene Tosoni and Scott Diamond: 4 points
Any old person in the stands that's nodded off in the middle innings: 1 point
- Bonus if they look like Sid Hartman and you submit a picture: 12 points
Any pitcher getting in some running on the warning track during the game: 1 point
- Jose Mijares stopped, looking winded, on the warning track during the game: 3 points
And... go! You're on the honor system for points. Although if you see Mauer in the pirate hat, you may just win automatically, no matter what the points say.

Will there be anyway to watch this on my computer?
Could someone provide the URL they’ll be using if you can watch this online?

will probably have it around game time.
I lied!
looks like the govt got a hold of it.
Yeah
That happened back during football season. They seized quite a few streaming sites a few months ago, kind of lame. But to be truthful I’m not that desperate to watch ST baseball

It just moved
after it got seized that is. It was a sad, sad day.
"Brian Cardinal left Purdue being the only Boilermaker to receive both the "Mr. Hustle" Award and the "Courage" Award four years in a row"
The game is also on MLB Network
for those of us who have it. I think I’m gonna watch it on there, just because it’s something different from FSN.

How many points do we get if we see Alexi Casilla and Tsuyoshi Nishioka run into each other while they both try to cover second base on a stolen base attempt?

Do I win?
