Both Minnesota Twins split squad teams suffered setbacks in Florida Tuesday.

Michael Wacha gave up one run over two innings in his first start of the exhibition season as the St. Louis Cardinals beat a Minnesota Twins’ split squad 5-3 Tuesday.

Ricky Nolasco, competing for a spot in the Twins rotation, gave up three hits in three scoreless innings, struck out four and hit a batter.

Gavin Floyd pitched three strong innings and prospect Darrell Ceciliani hit a long grand slam, leading the Toronto Blue Jays past a Minnesota Twins split squad 9-3 on Tuesday.

Ceciliani connected in the first off Tyler Duffey after the Minnesota starter allowed singles to Troy Tulowitzki, AL MVP Josh Donaldson and Justin Smoak to load the bases.

David Adams homered and Smoak added an RBI double for the Blue Jays in the fifth.

Minnesota’s Miguel Sano hit a two-run homer in the seventh.
