St. Louis Cardinals' Adam Wainwright(notes) delivers a warm-up pitch before pitching in the first inning against the Minnesota Twins in a spring training baseball game in Fort Myers, Fla., Tuesday, March 9, 2010. Wainwright struggled, allowing five hits, four runs and two walks in two innings.

On a tough day for the Minnesota Twins, third base prospect Danny Valencia provided something positive. Valencia hit the go-ahead home run in the eighth inning, and the Twins beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-6 on Tuesday after learning All-Star closer Joe Nathan has a torn ligament in his throwing elbow.
