Hicks continues to impress.

Max Kepler is 10 months older than Buxton but he seems a couple years older based on body form.

Happened to catch a few key guys in the BP cage. Terry Ryan was also watching them.

Former Twins prospect Rene Tosoni, better known around here as "French Resistance Fighter Rene Tosoni" is intentionally hit by a pitch in today's Mexico vs Canada game of the WBC, which leads to a huge brawl. This happened immediately after a fellow Canadian player bunted for a base hit with Canada up 9-3 in the 9th Inning, which as most baseball fans know goes against one of the biggest unwritten rules in the game, you don't bunt with a big lead. I love the announcer's comment as the fight escalates, "You want nothing to do with the hockey players!" Tosoni is now a part of the Milwaukee Brewers organization, he signed a minor league contract with them prior to this season, and was not invited to spring training.

Barely seated and Aaron hit his first of three home runs against the Phillies. This one was off Cliff Lee.
