Game Preview
Right-hander Joe Ryan will try to build on an impressive streak for Minnesota starting pitchers on Saturday afternoon when the Twins host the Houston Astros in Minneapolis.
No Minnesota starter has allowed more than one run in any of the team’s seven games during the team’s 5-2 start this season. The rotation has allowed just five earned runs over 40 1/3 innings for an ERA of 1.12.
The Twins won the opener of the three-game series at Target Field, 3-2, on Friday afternoon on a bases-loaded single by Kyle Farmer in the 10th inning but it was the pitching performance by starter Sonny Gray that had everyone buzzing afterward.
