Jose Miranda singled in Alex Kirilloff with the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Minnesota Twins their second straight walk-off win over the Baltimore Orioles, 4-3, on Saturday afternoon in Minneapolis. Minnesota tied it at 3 when Jorge Polanco hit a 425-foot homer off Jorge Lopez (3-5) into the bullpen in left-center leading off the bottom of the ninth.

When I got back into baseball in 2011 with the Mets, I did have aspirations of becoming a big league pitching coach and would have loved to have had that opportunity. But the game’s changed so much, with the analytics and all that other stuff. Bert (Blyleven), myself, whoever, we lived it.
