Prior to the game, Morneau found a gift at his locker. It was a bat from Walker that was signed "To Justin, Make Canada proud!"

Morneau batted behind Corey Koskie (Anola, Man.) in the Twins' lineup.
He played against Larry Walker (Maple Ridge, B.C.).
Here's a photo of the three.

#OTD 23 years ago, Justin Morneau (New Westminster, B.C.) made his MLB debut with the Minnesota Twins.
Batting cleanup and DHing, he went 2-for-4 with two singles in the Twins' 5-0 loss to the Colorado Rockies at the Metrodome.

Look what we got here... it's a box all the way from British Columbia!
The BC Lions of the CFL are some of the most fun football you'll ever watch... and they got a heck of a QB!
Thank you Coach Pierce and the @BCLions for this awesome box!!

One story: a person wearing a FIFA vest approached our staff yesterday while we moved artifacts out. “Why are you still here?” this person asked us. “It’s our last day, we’re moving out,” one of our team replied. “Ok that’s good,” the FIFA rep answered. Unreal. I almost lost it.
