The MLB Game of the week is on the Minnesota Twins. Game 972 at 8:10 eastern. The Twins fit a powerful system that plays on home favorites off a home dog loss that had 4 or less hits and are taking on a team like Chicago here that comes in off a road dog loss and had 5+ hits and 1 or no errors last out. These home teams win by an average 6-2 score since 2004. The Twins are 6-1 as a home favorite off a home dog loss after getting 4 or less hits. They will look to end a 4 game losing streak they suffered to Cleveland. They have E. Santana going and he has gone 4-0 of late vs the White Sox including a pair of wins this year where he has NOT allowed a run in 15 innings. Santana has a solid 2.56 era this season overall. He will be opposed by D. Holland who is 0-4 here in Minnesota. Look for the Twins to take the opener.
