Minnesota Twins

Two Minnesota high school baseball teams got to play at Target Field in Minneapolis. FOX 9's Leon Purvis has more. 

The latest episode of H&H: The Henry and Hicks Show brings a loaded lineup of storylines, bold takes, and a little bit of “I told you so.” Tiger Woods is back in the headlines, and Ahmad Hicks and Henry Lake dive into the latest scandal surrounding the golf legend—while asking the bigger question: will we ever see Woods win another Masters again? Switching gears to hoops, the Minnesota Lynx are on the clock. With the WNBA announcing key upcoming dates, the guys break down draft strategy and debate who could be the right fit to help elevate the franchise moving forward. On the baseball front, the Minnesota Twins sit at .500—maybe surprising to some—but the real eye-opener has been Taj Bradley. After starting 2-0 through his first three outings, Lake isn’t surprised at all. In fact, he’s doubling down, reminding everyone he called this months ago—and now it’s time for the rest of the league to catch up. From golf greatness to draft decisions and early MLB storylines, this episode covers it all with strong opinions and even stronger receipts.
