ANAHEIM -- Twins infielder Eduardo Escobar will never forget Memorial Day 2017.
Escobar flew to Miami on Monday for his final interview as part of his process to get a Green Card in his quest to become a U.S. citizen. It was a major step for the Venezuela-born Escobar and his family, who make their offseason home in Miami, and he now must wait five years to apply for U.S. citizenship. He missed Tuesday's game as a result, but when he returned on Wednesday, the Twins held a special celebration in the clubhouse before the game to honor Escobar.
