The Twins’ record for bunt hits is 29, set by Rod Carew in 1974. I had that wrong in my game story today and received a couple e-mails, which helped us correct it for online editions.

Anyway, Carlos Gomez has nine bunt hits, putting him on pace for 54.

He also has 11 stolen bases, putting him on pace for 66, which would break the team record of 62, set by Chuck Knoblauch in 1997.

And to think some of us were suggesting just a week ago that the Twins should consider sending him to the minors.
