Molitor excited Rosario, Berrios playing in PR

SAN JOSE, Puerto Rico -- Twins manager Paul Molitor had a long and illustrious playing career, but he never had the chance to play in Puerto Rico outside of a charity event with Carlos Baerga in 1997 on the 25th anniversary of Roberto Clemente's death.

So Molitor said he's excited for his players to take part in the Puerto Rico series against the Indians, especially Puerto Rico natives Eddie Rosario and Jose Berrios. Molitor understands the series is bigger than baseball, as it's raising awareness and funds for the island after Hurricane Maria struck in September.
