oh, i should have mentioned that i've been searching for this answer for two months, and i've heard and read every "funny" response to this question.

 

help a brother out!!!

This is the most simple and absolutely true answer that you will ever recieve.

 

They have to play two national anthems, American and Canadian. Hence the extra 2 minutes.

wow. genius. thanks.

 

but i think they must just switched this year to the 7s for their official start times, because they've never been listed like this until this year.

 

still, a fantastic answer. thanks!!!

IN reality, that is when all games begin, they just don't publish it like that.

^Yeah that^

 

I was typing out a long winded response saying basically that when my computer randomly shut off. Next time you go to the game, watch the pitcher and ump. If it's :06 past the hour, they wait until :07 to throw the first pitch. If there are two national anthems to sing, they just start singing them earlier.

The Twins start their home games at :10 after. I think that is for TV purposes, so there can be a pre game deal

 

The D-Rays start theirs at :15 after. I dont know what. I assume the same thing

does it really matter when each team plays
