After a ridiculous hot start for the Twins, they’ve been struggling to maintain their division lead over Clevelend. Something has been missing. An ace starter? A dominant closer? Byron Buxton? Nope. The team apparently needed a #RallySquirrel.

 

Tuesday night the Twins again fell into an early deficit to the White Sox. They came back to tie it 3-3 and were threatening in the bottom of the fifth when this happened:

 

Clearly shaken, the White Sox responded with the perfect counter strategy: they hit Jorge Polanco to load the bases with two outs. This year, the Twins had hit just .170 in that situation. But even the bases-loaded curse couldn’t stop the power of the #RallySquirrel:

 

 

Yup, two batters later the Twins were up 7-3, and rolled on to win 14-4. In case you don’t believe in a #RallySquirrel, the Twins scientifically proved her impact:

 

 

Case closed. Nelson Cruz, who went 4-5 with a home run and three doubles, suggested turning over the ballpark to the squirrels, if necessary.

 

 

The White Sox are clearly intimidated, and a little jealous:

 

 

Yeah, right, Pale Hose. This is our gal. Plus, with this look, it’s easy to see she wants to feast on your South Side flesh:

 

 

Twins manager Rocco Baldelli knows a competitor when he sees one and is welcoming her with open arms:

 

 

But a squirrel this powerful can never be caged. Farewell for now, #RallySquirrel.

 

 

Take comfort, Minnesota. When needed, she’ll be there.

Great article! It was a fun game to see! And I'm so glad security didn't throw me out for running on the field! And did you see Abreu jump when I ran by first? (Not sorry about that, hehehe.) But I made one correction ... please make sure you get that right next time! :)

Fixed throughout. Twins Daily deeply regrets our mistake.

Someone find the hole in the wall where this magnificent creature crawled in.  Furnish it with the best of squirrel furniture, fill it up with the finest of white oak acorns, and get him signed.  I don't want no custodians or field crew upset about this guy and setting traps under the radar.

Oh, yes, yes, yes! Especially about the trapped thing. And I’m rather fond of Danish modern furnishings!

Again. The name Rocket B. Squirrel from Bomba Bay, Mn. Long lost cousin to Rocket J. Squirrel of Frostbie Falls, Mn, of Rocky and Bullwinkle fame. Anyone have a better name??

 

Here's a couple of possibilities - Squiggy Squirrel, Nutty T. Squirrel, Minny Squirrel (although that could constitute and infringement on Minnie and Paul), Rally Squirrel, and the obvious Hammy T. Squirrel which is borrowed from Over the Hedge.  However, I think his name is just a single name...kind of like Cher, Madonna....and now Bomba.  His name is just Bomba.
