HOUSTON — The day he turned 52 years old last December, LaTroy Hawkins hit submit on his final paper, the last thing standing between him and a college degree. And last month, Hawkins, who is currently with the Twins on their road trip serving as an analyst on the television broadcast, donned a cap and gown as he walked across the stage and received his diploma, fulfilling a dream his mother and grandmother had for him and, he hopes, serving as an example to his family’s younger generation.

HOUSTON — In the minutes after the Twins were walked off by the Houston Astros, Willi Castro was still trying to piece together what, exactly, had happened. Astros second baseman Mauricio Dubón hit a ball to Castro in left that he leapt for it looked like it hit his glove before rattling off the wall.

The left hamstring is the same one he strained earlier this year.
Rocco Baldelli said Royce Lewis has a "left hamstring strain of some kind." "He actually tested relatively well after the game upon examination in the training room. We’re going to bring him in tomorrow and check him out, see how he comes in."
