Twins' Byron Buxton makes bold prediction for how he'd win the ultimate race

Related Topics: Byron Buxton, Minnesota Twins

Twins outfielder Byron Buxton has established himself in Minnesota, and has no plans to leave - just listen to how emphatically he endorsed his permanent home in response to Jon Heyman. Buxton is also undeniably a Georgia native, though, and his homecoming was used to full effect in Atlanta to promote the All-Star Game.

Buxton extolled the virtues of his home state in a pregame message on the video board (alongside Matt Olson), and told reporters at media day that the most "Georgia things he could think of" were peaches and the comfort of the wooded countryside.
