The New York Yankees and the Minnesota Twins will finish off
their three-game set and their season set tonight inside Target Field with the
finale of the series. In the finale the Yankees will send Luis Severino to the
mound on an extra day of rest to face off with Jake Odorizzi for the Twins. Must
win for the Yankees with the A’s nipping at their feet, so let’s get to it here
inside Target Field.
Severino heads into the start tonight fresh off his shortest
outing of the season last time out against the Oakland Athletics. In the start
Severino lasted just 2.2 innings while allowing six runs in the Yankees 8-2
loss out in Oakland. Since July 7th Severino has posted a 4-5 record
with a 6.83 ERA in 11 starts and the Yankees hope an extra day of rest can help
the right-hander turn things around.
Odorizzi also struggled in his last start against the
Houston Astros where the right-hander gave up five runs in 4.2 innings pitched
in a loss. Odorizzi was strong early, but it all came apart in the fifth
innings, which has been an issue for him all season long.
The game will be played at 8:10 pm ET inside Target Field in
Minnesota and can be seen on the YES Network. You can also follow along with
the game on MLB TV, with the MLB At-Bat app, and by tuning into the Yankees
radio broadcast on WFAN with John Sterling and Suzyn Waldman.
Enjoy the game, gain some breathing room in the Wild Card
chase, and go Yankees!!
