The Twins released their 2015 schedule today, which is nice because it makes us think less and less about their increasingly lost 2014 season.
We've taken the liberty of highlighting what we consider key dates. You'll see them below in photo form, and we'll explain here:
April 6: Season opener at Detroit
April 13: Home opener vs. Kansas City
May 25: Home vs. Boston. That's Memorial Day, and it's an afternoon game. Sadly, the Twins are not home the preceding series for that weekend, and they are not home at all over the July 4th weekend or Labor Day weekend.
June 5-7: Home weekend vs. Milwaukee (and don't forget a good road trip for the return against the Brewers, June 26-28, a Friday-Sunday.
June 17-21: Back-to-back home series against the Cardinals and Cubs. The 21st, vs. the Cubs, is Father's Day.
July 17-19: Another road trip possibly, with a weekend trip in Oakland. It's not the greatest ballpark, but you can't beat the Bay Area.
