❓#QuestionOfTheWeek Any twins in your family tree? 👯

Do you have twins — or multiple sets — in your family tree? What stories have you discovered about them?

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/V0AeTCDxhuo

Twins turn up in the records in all sorts of ways: paired baptism entries, shared birthdays that look like transcription errors, siblings who lived parallel lives half a world apart. Sometimes they're the reason a family line finally makes sense.

3rd time #RedSox have scored a season-high 4 runs in the 1st inning of a game this season (also May 22 vs #Twins and June 29 vs #Nationals).

Won't do this every game, fans, but this setup seems incomprehensible just a couple weeks ago.

As #RedSox win today, #Yankees lose Game 1 of their doubleheader. #Guardians lose and #Twins are trailing 10-0 in the 7th at Wrigley.

Wilyer Abreu is 3rd #RedSox with 2 home runs in a game this season (also Willson Contreras on June 14 vs #Rangers and Caleb Durbin on June 10 at #Rays).

Club record is 3 HRs in a game, most recently by Triston Casas on September 22, 2024 in Game 1 of a doubleheader vs #Twins.

#Rays starter is James Griffin Jax, 31, from Phoenix, Arizona. Lives today in Tempe, AZ. Listed at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds. Was a 3rd-round pick for #Twins in 2016 #MLB Draft out of the US Air Force Academy. Made his #MLB debut win MIN in 2021.

Overall, #RedSox have converted bad calls into strikeouts 18 times with an ABS challenge this season. #Twins have done it the most times in #MLB (32).

6th consecutive game with 3+ earned runs allowed by #WhiteSox starter Noah Schultz. Tied for 3rd-longest such active streak in #MLB. #Diamondbacks Zac Gallen and #Twins Simeon Woods Richardson have done that 8 times in a row.

The #Twins acquired reliever Woo-Suk Go in a cash trade with the #Tigers on Sunday.

The comments are snickering-middle-school-boys quality, but the numbers this determined pitcher has in AAA this season are very good. One to watch.
