Minnesota Twins Opening Day Countdown: 44, Chili Davis

The Minnesota Twins are preparing for a 2018 season with expectation after making the playoffs in 2017 as a Wild Card team. We will highlight numbers from team history that represent the number of days until Opening Day on March 29th in Baltimore.

The next player in our countdown wasn’t with the Twins for very long, but his presence will certainly be remembered. Chili Davis was born in Kingston, Jamaica on January 17, 1960. When Davis would make his major league debut with the San Fransisco Giants in 1981 he would become the first ever Jamaican-American player to play in the majors.
