Hometown Hero

He's back! And I got a front row spot at the presser to hear all about it.



Perks of the job.

Born and raised in Minnesota, Mauer now plays for the team he watched as a kid. He's been a star since his rookie season. He was on the disabled list for all of April and today he's come back in full force. In fact, on his first at bat, in his very first swing of the season, he smashed a solo home run. How's that for awesomeness. I'd say, pretty awesome.
