Washington - Baseball
The Minnesota Twins did not draft Chad Christensen so he could play in his home town for the Cedar Rapids Kernels some day, although that would be an added bonus.
Rather, the Twins took Christensen in the 25th round of the 2013 draft because they like his versatility and talent.
Christensen is hitting .290 with six RBIs in nine games for Minnesota's team in the Florida Gulf Coast League, which means he's probably two steps away from playing for the Kernels. Most Twins prospects start in the Gulf Coast League and then play for Elizabethton (Tenn.) in the Appalachian League before coming to Cedar Rapids.

Landen Akers was standing on third base with two outs in the top of the seventh inning Wednesday night when Cedar Rapids Washington assistant coach Javier Rivera came over from the third-base coaching box with a startling idea.
"Steal home," Rivera told Akers.
Huh?
"Yeah, I thought it was risky at first," said Akers, a speedy sophomore. "But then I thought I had a chance. I had to go."
