Mariano Rivera Presented With Broken Bat Chair By Twins

In Game Of Thrones' Westeros, the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms sits on the Iron Throne, forged from the swords of vanquished foes. In Minnesota, MLB's king of the ninth inning received a wooden throne constructed of broken bats on Tuesday.Wells worked on getting his lower half more involved in his swing, which had become very arm-heavy in recent weeks. It got to the point where I was almost only using my hands,” Wells said. “It’s not a matter of swinging harder; it’s a matter of using my lower half. It’s a big lower half, so I might as well take advantage of it.” Following Wells’ two-hit night, he and Long were back on the field for early BP Tuesday, continuing the work they started a day earlier. Obviously I got the results in the game, but just during batting practice and the work today, the ball is jumping off my bat like it should,” said Wells, who didn’t play Tuesday night. “I’ll just keep doing it over and over again to where it becomes natural and not have it be a conscious thought. That sounds about right.
