Parker learns to hit like a Mauer

What a day for the little twins fan! Parker and Steve went to a two-hour hitting clinic at Hamline on Sunday that was put on by Mauer's Quickswing. The whole Mauer family, plus some local college teams and coaches served as the instructors for the clinic. Jake and Bill Mauer, both former minor-leaguers and current baseball coaches were both there providing instruction, as was their little brother Joe from the Minnesota Twins---Can't go wrong learning how to swing the bat from a guy who's won an MLB batting title!
Take a look at the picture--can you tell which one makes $8 million a year playing ball? (yeah, that's today's going rate for an all-star, but Steve is hoping that will be up to $10 mil. by Parker's time in the spotlight!)
