Anglers eagerly eye diverse waters as Bassmaster Opens head to Leech Lake for the first time
WALKER, Minn. — Leech Lake might not be the final frontier, but it’s certainly the first time B.A.S.S. has visited the remote fishery in northern Minnesota. Leech is far from the great unknown, however, at least to bass anglers here on the fringe of America’s Midwest. To hear them talk, it’s been a destination lake of sorts for several decades now, despite the fact that it’s closer to Canada’s southern border than it is to the state capital of St. Paul (sister city of Minneapolis about 3½ hours southeast).

Santana's sacrifice fly in 9th off All-Star closer Yates sends Twins past Rangers 3-2
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Carlos Santana hit a sacrifice fly off All-Star closer Kirby Yates in the ninth inning and the playoff-contending Minnesota Twins won 3-2 at Texas on Thursday night in the series opener against the reigning World Series champion Rangers. Santana’s deep fly to right-center came after Yates (4-2) issued consecutive one-out walks and then threw a wild pitch. “He’s seen it all ... he really knows what he needs to do,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said of Santana. “We don’t need a bomb. We don’t need really anything but a barrel. He got the pitch up and drove it out there. Nice job, professional.” Willi Castro homered for the Twins (68-53), who moved within four games of idle Cleveland for the AL Central lead. Minnesota currently holds the American League’s second wild card.
Ravens, Chargers, Could Lose Trade Target to Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings had a rough 24 hours. After watching Kirk Cousins depart for the Atlanta Falcons, the team signed Sam Darnold as a bridge quarterback for first-round pick J.J. McCarthy. Unfortunately for everyone involved, McCarthy suffered a season-ending injury and will miss the entirety of 2024. Right now, Minnesota’s depth chart consists of Darnold, Nick Mullens, and Jaren Hall. These three are not good enough to make it through a full 17-game season, so the Vikings could trade for an experienced starter like Bailey Zappe.
