A hard one tonight and BG is a little torn. Lots of nods to the Kid for giving us a reason to live again and to the Veep for being mad hot. And BG's this close to giving it to Sweetcheeks for potentially saving the game with a shoestring catch with the bases loaded. But on a night where the Twins got the stadium bill signed and the biggest applause of the night went to Kent Hrbek, the BODSHC is going to honor the hometown hero, who's been kicking butt-ocks all over the place lately, who was born after the Metrodome opened and with any luck will be hitting homers in Legovision Park in '10, who caught a great game and kept the Kid calm when things got dicey and hit a nice solo homer and managed not to be too dorky in his postgame interview, and that's why you, Chairman Mauer, are the Boyfriend of the Day.
