The Minnesota Twins and the St. Louis Cardinals look to start their season on a strong note, kicking off their season-opening series at Busch Stadium on Thursday.
The Twins have won their last three games of Spring Training, flexing their improved offense against the Boston Red Sox 9-3, the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-1, and the Colorado Rockies 5-3. Pablo Lopez will step onto the mound as the opening-day starter for Minnesota, getting the nod after posting 15 wins with a 4.08 ERA last season.
The Cardinals have gone 3-2 in their last five games of Spring Training. They dropped their last exhibition game against the Washington Nationals 1-2 after Jack Sinclair allowed zero runs in 5.5 pitched innings. 13-9 with a 3.84 ERA last season, Sonny Gray will start for St. Louis on opening day.
