Playoff-bound Reds, Twins tangle again, looking for more | |
Right-hander Michael Pineda makes his first career start against the Cincinnati Reds as the Minnesota Twins try to take another step toward a second consecutive American League Central title on Saturday night in Minneapolis. The Twins (35-23) hold a one-game lead over both the Chicago White Sox (34-24) and Cleveland Indians (34-24) heading into the final two games of the regular-season. Minnesota can clinch home field advantage for the wild-card round by winning one game or Cleveland losing one game, and can claim the AL Central title by finishing with two victories. MORE | |
