MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - It’s shaping up to be a big week in Minnesota sports with the Twins getting ready to host their 2023 home opener, and the University of Minnesota hockey team heading to the NCAA Frozen 4.
Sunday night on Fox 9 Sports Now, Jim Rich sat down with Twins’ legend Kent Hrbek, and Gophers’ hockey coach Bob Motzko.
The Twins are off to a 3-0 start after opening the regular season with a sweep at Kansas City. They got quality starting pitching, timely hitting and the bullpen did its job. They completed the sweep Sunday with the help of two home runs from Joey Gallo, and six solid innings from Joe Ryan.
