This is the fourth straight road game for Minnesota, on a brutal 10-game trip. Starter Jake Odorizzi has been dominant at home (1.24 ERA), but his ERA goes up by 2.5 runs on the road, and the team is 2-9 when he is on the road against a winning team. Minnesota faces a Tampa Bay squad that is no fluke, ranked seventh on offense in on-base percentage, while the pitching staff is No. 1 in baseball with a 3.00 team ERA. Tampa Bay is on a 56-27 run at home, plus 23-9 following a defeat. The Rays are also 20-8 against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. Play Tampa Bay.
