BALTIMORE (AP) -- Matt Wieters singled home the winning run with two outs in the ninth inning, and the Baltimore Orioles withstood two long rain delays Monday in a season-opening 3-2 victory over the Minnesota Twins.
A game that was scheduled to start at 3:05 p.m. finally ended at 8:44, even though the playing time was only 2 hours, 48 minutes.
With the score tied at 2, Chris Davis drew a two-out walk from Kevin Jepsen (0-1). After newcomer Mark Trumbo followed with his fourth single, Wieters lined a single up the middle.
