2014 Game 1: Minnesota Twins at Chicago White Sox
Opening Day. Just remember what A. Bartlett Giamatti said. This game is meant to break your heart.
Today the Minnesota Twins baseball club will challenge the Chicago White Sox team to commence the 2014 Major League Baseball regular season. Leave us not have illusions about what the Twins can reasonably pull off this year, but leave us neither let that temper our enjoyment of the game and the team we love.
Today the Twins send Ricky Nolasco to the mound as their Opening Day starter. The White Sox counter with Chris Sale. Both pitchers enter the season undefeated, so it should be an evenly matched contest.
Play ball!
