Fantastic Mauertracker moment this Sunday.

Justin Morneau confesses to having requested to be inducted into the Twins Hall of Fame at the same time as his baseball bff and Twins legend Joe Mauer, dumbfounding his broadcasting partner Dick Bremer who assumed that anybody in that situation would have an issue with Joe getting the spotlight during their own enshrinement. The booth atmosphere briefly skirts awkwardness as Justin audibly gets self-conscious at the realisation that his point of view is not the mainstream one. A truly insane couple of minutes, especially at the end when he reveals that he perceives himself as having spent his career hiding behind Joe?

Transcript under cut for your reading pleasure.

Bremer: Now, isn't it nice, though, that Joe is the only inductee [into the Twins Hall of Fame] this year? How’d you like to be going into the Twins Hall of Fame WITH JOE MAUER. You’d get the same feeling every Vice President of the United States has. Morneau: [chuckling] Bremer: You— you'd just... you know. Morneau: Actually, I... requested... for that to happen. Bremer: That he be the only one? Morneau [quieter]: No. I actually— I thought it would be kinda cool if we went in at the same time. Bremer [genuinely surprised]: Oh, if you both went in— I see. Well I mean you went in all by yourself, but. Morneau: Thankfully, otherwise we wouldn’t have played that game that day. [his speech was, notoriously, half an hour long] Bremer: Well… Chances are the second speech wouldn’t have been nearly as long as the first one, but… What was it, an hour and twelve minutes? Morneau: Something like that. Bremer: But d’you know what I mean, I mean... who would ever remember that you went in... Morneau [amused]: Same time as Joe? Bremer: With Joe Mauer! [long silence. Thirty subsequent seconds of explanations as to why Joe's number retirement and Hall of Fame induction happened separately are cut out] Bremer [haltingly]: And— And, uh, we... kid a lot up here but... Were you serious? You actually requested... that, that you and Joe be inducted together? Morneau: Yeah, I don’t think he was technically eligible when I was eligible cause he played longer than I did, but... Yeah, I thought it would be— and we were... linked... so much... else... throughout our career... Bremer [encouragingly]: Right... That would have been cool! Morneau: But also. [long pause] Hard— hard to believe, but I don't really like... Attention, standing in front of a [nervous chuckle] stadium full of people and... [quieter] thought it'd be kinda nice. Just hide behind Joe again. Let him… Bremer: [laughs] Morneau [audibly smiling]: Like I did forever.

#justin morneau #joe mauer #minnesota twins #insane #baseball #a glimpse into his psyche. who knows what goes on in there #I mean in a sense Bremer is right. Why wouldn't you want your own moment #it's interesting that he just seems to be understanding how much morneau sees his career and in a sense his life as being deeply intertwine #with Joe's in an indiscernable way

so many good parts from this article about the twins sausage

As Ryan Jeffers remembers, the sausage appeared just before he and Edouard Julien hit back-to-back home runs in the sixth inning to finally tag Chicago starter Michael Soroka.

it just appeared, knowing it was needed

It’s most visible when Jeffers tosses it to a teammate following a home run, but Twins players are said to touch it for good luck before an at-bat, too. “It’s very weird, very gross, but at the same time, it’s working," Carlos Correa said. "So we’ll stick with it."

the things they do to win

“It's not wet on the outside yet,” Jeffers said.

yes im sure that means its fine

"It's going to have mold all over it," Farmer said. "It's going to, like, grow hair." Jeffers added: "We don't want the Minnesota Twins' sausage to start another worldwide crisis."

every time they toss it its russian roulette to become the next patient zero

On the way to Anaheim ahead of the Twins’ last series, Popkins is said to have put it in Jeffers’ bag. Jeffers said he triple-wrapped it in plastic bags and put it inside a shoe.

appropriate safety measures

and of course:

“It's the idea of the sausage,” Jeffers said. “It's the meaning behind the sausage. We're going to learn more about the sausage as the days go by.”

#minnesota twins #love this team theyr so silly #all hail the botulism sausage #altho theres like a 50/50 chance its fine unrefrigerated since the exact flavor of sausage hasnt been revealed to us #and some of this companys sausages dont need to be refrigerated
