Nationals rally to defeat Twins, 3-2, at chilly target Field

MINNEAPOLIS — They played Prince's "Sometime It Snows In April" on a 37-degree Friday night at Target Field. That's where second baseman Jorge Polanco made his long-awaited season debut and Washington denied manager Rocco Baldelli his 300th Twins win with an eighth-inning rally for a 3-2 victory.
