MINNEAPOLIS -- One day after making arguably his best defensive play of the season, Miguel Sano found himself putting in the early offensive work at Target Field.
Sano was the first Twins hitter in the batting cage prior to Wednesday's game against the Indians. He began to hit off the tee, as hitting coach James Rowson watched closely from behind home plate. Sano scorched baseball after baseball into the right-center gap, before he began depositing them over the left-field wall.
For Sano, it was just the latest example of the work ethic he has maintained through the highs and lows of his All-Star season.
