Notes: It's the first game of the vaunted Mayor's Cup. The Sox and Twins will play eight times this spring. ... It's the first start of the spring for Clay Buchholz, who missed a start because of a strained right hamstring. ... Aceves (Mexico) and De La Torre (Puerto Rico) are leaving for the WBC after the game as is Shane Victorino (USA).
