Andrew McCutchen hit a three-run homer and a two-run single as Pittsburgh defeated the Twins on Saturday as the Pirates will try to make it two in a row with a bullpen game on Sunday. Ryan Borucki is slated to start and then be relieved by Osvaldo Bido. Borucki has a 1.86 ERA in five career games versus the Twins. Minnesota will go with Dallas Keuchel, who is hoping for a comeback in the major leagues although he didn't look good his last outing allowing six runs in 1 2/3 innings in a 13-2 loss to Philadelphia on Aug. 11. The Twins have lost six of 10 and are in first place due to a weak AL Central. Minnesota's bullpen has a 4.08 ERA with only 28 saves. Take the Pirates on the runline as Max Play

2 units on Pittsburgh +1.5 runs -165 (runline) (risk 2 to return 3.21)
