Boston at Minnesota

Boston is experiencing another tailspin losing six of its past eight games while the Twins have won four in a row and are within 1.5 games of first place in the AL Central. Minnesota has outscored the opposition 24-7 in those four games, including a 4-2 victory Monday night when Gio Urshela's double scored all three runners in the fifth. Chris Archer has pitched better at home where he has a 3.83 ERA and .211 opponent batting average and he'll get the start tonight. He also has a 2.81 ERA and .206 OBA in night games compared to 5.98 and .241 in day games. Kutter Crawford has been pounded to the tune of 13 runs on 21 hits his last two outings in only 8 1/3 innings pitched and Boston has lost his last four starts. The Red Sox are 1-11 their past 12 games after scoring two or fewer runs their previous game and are on their way to finishing last in the AL East. Take the Twins.
