Ham and Squints from 'The Sandlot' were at Target Field

Patrick Renna and Chauncey Leopardi, known for playing Hamilton "Ham" Porter and Michael "Squints" Palledorous, respectively, were at the Red Sox-Twins game on Friday. As tweeted by @Twins, they hung out with players like Aaron Hicks before the game, getting ready for Sunday, when the Twins will host a postgame Sandlot screening.

I doubt the duo will heckle the Red Sox by saying "you bob for apples in the toilet ... and you LIKE it," and as far as I know Target Field's left-field fence isn't home to a beastly dog, but this is a terrific promotion no matter what. And the Twins even have a history of playing in sandlot-like conditions:
