Trent Oeltjan who?

I can't pronounce his name, but Trent Oetljan is making his major league debut right now and doing everything he can to stay. He hit his first major league home run (an 8th inning shot to tie the game), got on base two more times (once in the top of the 10th), stole 2 bases (to move in to scoring position in the 10th), and also made an outfield assist.

Trent Oeltjan who? He signed with the twins in 2001 as an 18 year old prospect from Australia and bounced around in the minors/australian leagues for 9 professional seasons. A fine start...
