Thursday is Opening Day for Major League Baseball, as all 30 teams will begin their seasons (expect for two teams who already played a few games in Japan). The Cardinals will be in Milwaukee to start their year and you can hear the 1:10 p.m. first pitch on KMOX 1120 – while enjoying some chips and salsa from Schnucks.

And there are two different types of the salsa this year: Spicy and Mild.

If you don't remember the story of Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter's secret salsa that sparked the Cardinals resurgence late in the season, click here to hear Carp explain it.

Schuncks jumped in quickly to get the recipe, so everyone got a chance to try the special stuff. 

Hopefully the magic salsa will work for the Cards all season long this year.
