There’s always optimism as the Major League Baseball season opens, and then … there’s the weather.
It’s chilly at Target Field as the Twins face the Houston Astros. But the sun popped out just before first pitch, so the complaints are … fewer.
We’ll keep you updated from the park in this “rematch” of the 2023 American League playoffs.
The Astros and Twins both opened the season 2-4.
The Twins won their past two games in Chicago against the White Sox to pull out of a four-game losing streak.
Some between-innings reading:
The Twins and Astros have a built-in day off tomorrow (in case today’s game was rained out) and will resume the three-game series on Saturday.
