Hey there, time traveller!

NEW YORK (AP) — Max Kepler was activated from the 10-day injured list by the Minnesota Twins on Saturday and started in right field and hit seventh against the New York Yankees.
The 30-year-old was 2 for 16 with a home run and a walk in four games through April 3 before going on the IL.
Minnesota manager Rocci Baldelli said he planned to see how Kepler came through Saturday’s game before determining whether Kepler will play Sunday. The Twins are off Monday, then open a series at Boston the following day.
Outfielder Matt Wallner was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul after going 0 for 8 with a walk in six games.
Baldelli said outfielder Joey Gallo, who is on the IL with a right intercostal strain, likely will be activated Tuesday, or perhaps Wednesday if the Red Sox start a left-handed pitcher to open the series. Gallo began an injury rehabilitation assignment with the Saints on Friday and went 1 for 3 with a double.
Signed to an $11 million, one-year contract, Gallo hit .278 with three homers and seven RBIs in seven games for the Twins before the injury.
