Dodgers Expect to Play Tonight Despite Rain

The Dodgers and Twins were supposed to be playing the first game of a two-game set this afternoon. Andrew Heaney is set to make his debut for Los Angeles, getting his first start of the early season. He is supposed to face off against Minnesota’s Chris Archer, who pitched in just 6 big league games for the Rays last season.

But the rain was an issue even before the team plane touched down in Minnesota. The Dodgers anticipated issues with the weather, suggesting that Clayton Kershaw’s start could be pushed back to the home opener on Thursday evening.
