The Sporting Life with Star Tribune's Michael Rand: Lorde Is Your Baseball Guru
October 06, 2014
Every Monday at 8:30am StarTribune sports writer Michael Rand stops into the Morning Show to share the latest news in Sports.
1) The Twins are in search of a manager for the first time in more than a decade after firing Ron Gardenhire. Meanwhile, if you want to root for a team in the MLB playoffs why not pick Kansas City -- a team that plays like the best Gardy teams from the 2000s. The Royals also inspired that one Lorde song. This is true.
2) The Wild opens the regular season with a home game Thursday, and the big question is whether the team can make the next step after a successful playoff run last year.
3) TCF Bank Stadium will play host to both Gophers and Vikings games next weekend, the only time that will happen all year.
