The Twins are going to dominate this game. The Twins have played at home really well this year and with Berrios on the mound have been very difficult to beat. The Tigers, they are just a lost team that is limping through the season without much in the way of offense, even when a pitcher like Boyd is able to shut down the offense of an opponent. The difference is the Twins offense is a powerhouse this year and that will help the Twins lockdown the win in this game. Final Score, Minnesota Twins win 8-4.
