Minnesota at Chicago

The Minnesota Twins are quickly gaining on the Yankees and Rays for the best record in the AL. They now trail Tampa by just a single game, and the Yanks by a half. The Twins are 36-11 in their last 47 games, are on fire and have been for a long time. The White Sox used a hot stretch to get back in the race, but are 2-6 in their last eight and they have fallen completely out of it. The Twins have dominated this series with a pair of 9-3 decisions, and what life the White Sox had coming into the series, is now gone. The Twins are 21-6 with a total set from 7-8.5 in their last 27, while the White Sox sit at 0-5 in that same situation. The Twins killing the White Sox overall with a 21-6 mark the last 27 times these teams have squared off, and dominating them in their own park to the tune of 10-2 in the last 12. Minnesota gets this one.
