SEATTLE -- Kurt Suzuki chuckled on Sunday morning when asked if there is a secret to hitting with runners in scoring position, and if he happened to know that secret.
"If you did, you'd be a Hall of Famer, right?" the Twins catcher said.
Point well taken, but the fact of the matter is that the Twins are doing a good job in this common situation that is so crucial to winning baseball games. Entering Sunday's series finale against the Mariners, Minnesota was 26-for-87 (.299) in its last 11 games with runners in scoring position.
