The Minnesota Twins have a home run sausage, and we have so many questions about why this is even a thing.
Look, I get it. Baseball players are going to do or wear whatever it takes to win games. The Phillies had a very NSFW gesture after big hits during last year’s playoffs. Joc Pederson wore pearls on his way to a World Series with the Braves several years ago. If it works, it works.
But the Twins’ new home run sausage celebration doesn’t have any rhyme or reason why it’s happening, and I’m so very confused. Who decided this? Why a sausage? Are they keeping it cool between hits? Are there multiple sausages used? SOMEBODY NEEDS TO ANSWER FOR THIS.
