The Minnesota Twins officially announced via conference call on Wednesday the signing of veteran DH Nelson Cruz. As we have covered and linked in several different ways, Cruz should help anchor the middle of the Twins lineup as it continues to look to be quite the powerful bunch.
As Brandon Warne of zone coverage.com live tweeted the conference call we learned quite a bit of fun information about Cruz and his journey to the Twins. The first and more amusing tidbit that Warne shared on Twitter was that air raid sirens were going off just as the conference was about to begin.
