Louie Varland gets the start for the Twins Tuesday with the first pitch at 6:40 PM on ESPN 102.3/AM 1000 KSOO. San Diego counters with Iowa native Michael Wacha.

On Friday night, the Dark Knight comes to Target Field for DC Comics Night. Fitting, don't you think? Fans who purchase this special theme night package receive a ticket to the game, plus a limited-edition Batman/Twins-themed bobblehead.

As we all know the Cubs like to play in the sunshine so two-day games are set for Saturday and Sunday this Mother's Day weekend.

Here Are The 7 Remaining Drive-In Theaters In South Dakota

If you were born last century...you know, in the nineteen hundreds (ugh)...you may have spent a summer evening in the car watching movies. I don't mean on your phone, I mean at the drive-in movie theater!

If you were in Sioux Falls in the 1970s and '80's you may remember seeing Jaws and Indiana Jones at The East Park or the Starlite Drive-In. Both drive-ins opened just after World War 2. The East Park didn't make it out of the '70s, closing in 1978. The Starlite survived long enough to see the birth of home video, closing in 1985.

FLASHBACK: Remember the East Park and Starlite Drive-in Theaters in Sioux Falls?

Drive-in movies had a bit of a resurgence during the pandemic. They were a way to go out and do something social without getting out of your car.

If you tried one during that time, or you remember the fun of a warm summer evening watching movies on that giant screen there are still places in South Dakota and around Sioux Falls you can do it.
