May 9, 2025; Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA; Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Chris Paddack (20) throws to the San Francisco Giants in the second inning at Target Field. Mandatory Credit: Bruce Kluckhohn-Imagn Images After Mother Nature interfered with the series opener on Monday night, the Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Guardians will try to pack in two games Tuesday evening in Minneapolis.
It’s possible that rain could tarnish those plans yet again.
The teams are scheduled to resume the suspended Monday game in the top of the fourth inning at 5:10 p.m. CT on Tuesday. Approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of that game, the teams will meet again to play the regularly scheduled Tuesday game.
The forecast for Tuesday calls for persistent rain during the day, and it remains to be seen whether the field will be in good enough shape for a resumed game and a full game in the evening. If the teams cannot play Tuesday, their next scheduled game is Wednesday afternoon.
Both teams’ managers likely will have to juggle their pitching staffs in the coming days.
Twins right-hander Bailey Ober and Guardians left-hander Logan Allen tossed three innings apiece Monday before the game was suspended. Neither pitcher will come back Tuesday, which will lead both teams to rely heavily on their bullpens to fill the final five innings.
The Twins led 2-1 after three innings when play stopped. Ty France and Willi Castro had one RBI apiece for Minnesota, and Kyle Manzardo drove in the Guardians’ lone run.
In regularly scheduled Tuesday game, right-hander Gavin Williams (3-2, 4.29 ERA) is set to take the ball for Cleveland. He is coming off a no-decision against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday, when he allowed two runs on four hits in five innings. He walked one and struck out six.
In five career starts against the Twins, Williams is 2-2 with a 3.79 ERA. He walked nine and struck out 16 in 19 innings during those outings.
Minnesota is set to counter with Chris Paddack (2-3, 4.05) in the regularly scheduled game. The right-hander has won back-to-back starts against the San Francisco Giants and Baltimore Orioles, allowing a total of one run in 14 1/3 innings.
In two career starts against Cleveland, Paddack is 0-0 with a 2.08 ERA and eight strikeouts in 13 innings.
Twins outfielder Matt Wallner remains out of the lineup because of a strained left hamstring, but he is getting closer to returning. Wallner could begin an rehabilitation assignment as soon as Wednesday, and he is eager to rejoin a Minnesota team that has won 13 of its past 14 games.
“That was so much fun to watch,” Wallner said. “Obviously, (I’m) so excited going forward. I think we’re in a really good spot as a team. Everybody has really stepped up. I got to watch from a fan’s perspective last week, and it’s just so much fun to watch and see guys contribute in all aspects of the game.”
Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt is looking forward to the Guardians’ games against the Twins, whenever they take place.
“We know the Twins are playing really well right now,” Vogt said. “So are the (Detroit) Tigers. … This is going to be a tough trip. We knew that coming into it.”

Fantasy Football 2025: WR Xavier Worthy player profile
Xavier Worthy shined brightest in the biggest games: Worthy’s best two games in terms of receiving yards and PFF receiving grade occurred in the conference championship game and the Super Bowl. He will compete with Rashee Rice: Worthy played at his best while playing in a role similar to Rice from 2023 to early 2024. It’s possible Worthy could get moved back to a role as an inconsistent deep threat.

We’re still very positive, says bowling coach Munaf Patel as DC eye playoffs spot
View Comments Mumbai: The JSW and GMR co-owned franchise Delhi Capitals will look to return to winning ways as they take on Mumbai Indians in a must-win encounter at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Wednesday. Reflecting on the season so far and their upcoming match against MI, Delhi Capitals’ bowling coach Munaf Patel said, “Ofcourse, there’s a bit of pressure as it is a must-win game for us. If we lose this one (against MI), we will be out of the tournament.” “Yes, there were some mistakes and we were not able to capitalise on some occasions. But the atmosphere in the team is very good and we are still very positive. We are just focusing on the next game,” he added. Munaf Patel lavished praise on wicket-keeper batter KL Rahul. “He is doing extraordinary batting. He has batted on […]
NFL ‘Dream Team’: Who should be on the 2028 U.S. Olympic men’s flag football roster?
NFL owners voted Tuesday to allow the league’s players to try out for flag football teams at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. The vote, which came at the spring league meeting in Minneapolis, was 32-0.In response, it’s only natural to wonder which players could make up the U.S. men’s team.AdvertisementBefore we get to an answer, though, let’s set some ground rules. The games will be played in a five-on-five format, and teams will have 10-player rosters, so that essentially gives each team a two-deep depth chart.Six yet-to-be-determined countries — including the U.S. — will field men’s flag football teams in the 2028 Olympics. Only one player from each NFL team can try out for each country. For example, that means the U.S. men’s team couldn’t have both Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley of the Philadelphia Eagles try out.

Pacers at Knicks Game 1 picks, odds, how to watch: An NBA rivalry revamped at Madison Square Garden
It’s Jalen Brunson vs. Tyrese Haliburton in a folding-chair fight of an Eastern Conference Finals. Spike Lee and Reggie Miller rejoice.The New York Knicks haven’t ventured this far through the postseason in 25 years. The last time they won an NBA title was May 10, 1973 — when the No. 1 song in America was “Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree” and the box office was topped by Bruce Lee’s first leading role. It’s been a long, long time coming for the five boroughs and tri-staters.AdvertisementTheir opponents, the Indiana Pacers, are pursuing their first Larry O’Brien Trophy in franchise history. The team won three championships in the now-defunct ABA, but they’re 0-1 all-time in NBA Finals bids (falling to the Shaq-and-Kobe Lakers in 2000). Neither side is taking this playoff run for granted, and the hype is […]

Panthers with most to prove: Bryce Young and 7 other players facing pivotal seasons
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — As far as offseasons go, this one was calm by Carolina Panthers standards.The head coach, general manager and quarterback are all back, which has been a rarity around Bank of America Stadium during David Tepper’s seven-year tenure as owner. Head coach Dave Canales made several staff changes, mostly on the defensive side after the Panthers allowed more points in 2024 than any NFL team over a 17-game schedule.AdvertisementThe Panthers cut a few veteran players, most notably edge rusher and 2014 No. 1 pick Jadeveon Clowney, running back Miles Sanders and tight end Jordan Matthews. But relatively speaking, there was a sense of normalcy as Tepper exhibited trust in Canales, general manager Dan Morgan and executive vice president of football operations Brandt Tilis, all of whom were hired in January 2024.Bryce Young, for one, was appreciative.“It’s nice having […]
