Cuddyer honors Killebrew with number choice
New Rockies outfielder Michael Cuddyer annoucned that he will wear No. 3 to honor a friend and former Twins great, the late Hall-of-Famer Harmon Killebrew. His introductory press conference at Coors Field starts soon.
Cuddyer wore No. 5 with the Twins, for whom he played 11 seasons.
“Strictly as a human being, he’s one of the greatest human beings I’ve ever come in contact with,” Cuddyer said. ”One of the first things I did was look at the roster, see if 3 was available and ask for it. I’m very happy to get it.”
