How unbelievably cool is this? Justin Morneau is officially a top-tier good guy in my book, this was really thoughtful of him

I don't know how many home run high fives I gave Justin Morneau over his career with the Twins. Or how many bats of his I weighed to the tenth of an ounce for him. But I do know one thing: he is just as much a Hall of Fame guy off the field as he is on. A #JM33 story...

Two of the relievers the Twins traded away at last year's deadline, Louis Varland and Jhoan Duran, were chosen as All-Stars. Varland has a 0.96 ERA and 18 saves for the Blue Jays. Duran has a 1.52 ERA and NL-leading 21 saves for the Phillies.

America burned Japan's first gift of cherry trees. All 2,000 of them, on President Taft's direct order. The 1910 shipment arrived in DC crawling with insects and nematodes. Agriculture inspectors condemned the lot, Taft signed off on the bonfire, and the State Department braced for a diplomatic disaster. Tokyo's mayor, Yukio Ozaki, responded by sending 3,020 more, grafted from the famous grove along the Arakawa River. Those trees have spent a century paying the friendship back. Four days after Pearl Harbor, vandals chopped down four of them. Park officials renamed the survivors "Oriental" cherry trees for the rest of the war to protect them from axes. Then came the twist. By 1952 the original Arakawa grove in Tokyo, the parent stock, had nearly died from wartime neglect. Japan asked Washington for help. The Park Service shipped budwood from DC's trees back across the Pacific and restored the grove that created them. When a flood wiped out more Japanese trees in 1982, horticulturists took 800 fresh cuttings from the Tidal Basin. These 250 new trees solve a real problem too. The Tidal Basin is sinking, and a $133 million seawall rebuild forced crews to rip out roughly 150 trees. Japan offered replacements before anyone asked, timed to America's 250th birthday. So the genetics run in a loop. Tokyo's grove seeded Washington's. Washington's saved Tokyo's. The saplings going in this spring descend from both. 114 years of diplomacy, running on grafted branches.

JUST IN: Japan declares its friendship with the U.S. is “stronger than ever” as it gifts an additional 250 cherry blossom trees.

As Karl-Anthony Towns pushes for a title, many Timberwolves fans aren't watching with regret. They're watching with pride. For those who backed KAT through nine seasons in Minnesota, this moment feels validating. Read for free, from @JonKrawczynski: nyti.ms/3PN8wFJ

If you vote against foreign aid to Israel and call out AIPAC, then the Jewish lobby will spend $20 million to primary you, get the President to endorse your opponent, and destroy your reputation with a phony scandal. If Massie loses tomorrow, you know Israel still owns Congress.

Pretty crazy how much one playoff series can shift perception and narratives of a single player. Wemby appeared to be liked by the majority of NBA fans (myself included) before this series, and he hasn't done himself many favors. Between the blocks in Game 1, ejection, flopping and officiating in general, he has just been annoying to watch.

Tonight the @Twins' Byron Buxton: - hit a leadoff HR - had all of his team's hits - drove in all of his team's runs No other MLB player has done all of that in a victory (since RBI became official in 1920).
