Caption: TWINS GET TWINS' STAR NAME: Minnesota Twins center fielder Torii Hunter (c) meets newborn twins Hunter (1) and Torii (r) at the St. Cloud Hospital in St. Cloud, MN. The boys' parents, Paula and Paul Johnson of Brooton, MN, named them after Hunter, their favorite Twins player. Hunter thanked the Johnsons and was honored they named their babies after him. The All-Star also asked Johnson if he was sure he made the right decision. "What if I get traded or something?" joked Hunter, who has spent his entire seven-year career with the Twins. The 28-year-old Hunter enjoyed his visit and left an autograph for the Johnsons that read: "Best wishes and nice name!"
