The letter, dated April 4, asks that the person handing it in be excused from any and all non-Twins related activities for the day, as the team plays the Cleveland Guardians.

Baseball fans looking to get out of work or school for the Minnesota Twins home opener may now have an easier time of doing just that – assuming their boss or teacher accepts the letter posted on the team’s social media accounts on Wednesday morning.

The letter, dated April 4, asks that the person handing it in be excused from any and all non-Twins related activities for the day, as the team plays the Cleveland Guardians.

First pitch for Thursday’s game is at 3:10 p.m.
