Former White Sox Minnie Minoso Dies

CHICAGO -- Minnie Minoso, who hit a two-run home run in his first at-bat when he became major league baseball's first black player in Chicago in 1951, has died, the Cook County medical examiner said Sunday. The medical examiner's office did not immediately offer further details. There is some question about his age but the White Sox say he was 90.

Wainwright Could Miss Opening Day Start

St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright could have his season debut delayed due to an abdominal stain he sustained on Monday, according to the Associated Press. Wainwright is expected to start on Opening Day on April 5 against the Chicago Cubs, however manager Mike Matheny said the pitcher could get pushed back a couple days if he doesn't show necessary improvement in time.
