The pre-game ceremony will include an on-field introduction of the SCSU wrestling team at the Twins' ballpark, Target Field, in downtown Minneapolis. In addition, Huskies' head wrestling coach Steve Costanzo will throw out the honorary first pitch of the game.
The festivities will precede the Twins-Philadelphia Phillies game scheduled to start at 12:10 p.m. Thursday afternoon.
