On Monday night, in an otherwise forgettable outing before the rain soaked Target Field and flipped the Twins' fortunes, the broadcast booth mused about whether Jhoan Duran's ninth inning, featuring two stolen bases by David Hamilton and a Roman Anthony laser to break the tie, would be his last in a Minnesota uniform.
That reality may have temporarily been lost in the sopping wet pandemonium as DaShawn Keirsey Jr. scored the winning run, but the Twins certainly brought that emotion back to the forefront early in Tuesday's game.
With two runs already in for the Red Sox in the top of the third, that stirring you saw in the bullpen wasn't someone getting warm to relieve a rookie hurler making his MLB debut.
