Twins blast five homers to beat Royals in opener
Minnesota twins begin the season with an 8 6 win at Kansas City amid league troubles.

Ron Gardenhire urged focus on on field play as the team fought through a winter of controversy and a court injunction. Royals tied the game 6 6 before Jones delivered a three run shot in the seventh to seize the lead.
