Cory Provus

2011 – The Twins announced today that Cory Provus will be joining the Twins’ radio broadcast team starting in 2012. Provus, who is replacing the recently retired John Gordon, will partner with former Twins outfielder and returning broadcaster Dan Gladden in sharing play-by-play and analyst duties for all regular-season and postseason games as well as 25 Spring Training games. Provus, 33, spent the last three seasons with the Brewers, sharing play-by-play responsibilities with Hall of Famer Bob Uecker on WTMJ-AM and the Brewers Radio Network. Provus began his MLB broadcast career in 2007 as the Cubs’ pre game and post game host. He also handled play-by-play duties, backing up Pat Hughes during games, and anchored the morning and afternoon drive sports casts as a reporter for WGN-AM in Chicago. 

1988 – The Twins once again trade pitcher Bert Blyleven along with pitcher Kevin Trudeau, this time to the California Angels for 1B Paul Sorrento, and pitchers Mike Cook, and Rob Wassenaar.
