Both the Seattle Mariners and Minnesota Twins had higher expectations coming into this season, but they enter Tuesday night’s matchup in Minnesota a combined six games above .500 for the year. Here, they face off in the second game of their three-game series this week, as the Twins look for a second straight win over the Mariners, while Seattle aims for a win to get back above the .500 mark.
The Seattle Mariners dropped to an even 50-50 on the season with a 4-3 loss in 10 innings to the Twins on Monday. In that game, the Mariners took a 3-2 lead in the top of the ninth inning, only to give up a run in the bottom of the ninth and again in the bottom of the 10th. Seattle will look to rebound from that heartbreaking loss on Tuesday, with George Kirby set to take the hill.
So far this season, Kirby has been solid for the Mariners, going 9-8 with a 3.23 ERA. Kirby has a game against the Twins under his belt already this season, as he threw seven shutout innings against them earlier in the season. But Kirby did not pick up the win in that contest, as his bullpen and bats did not reward him for that performance, something that will need to change in this game.
If this game does come down to the bullpens again on Tuesday, the Mariners could once again be at a disadvantage. While the M’s have the eight-best bullpen ERA in the league this season, the Twins rank fourth in that department. Because of that, Kirby may need to be extra special in this game to avoid any relief pitching calamities.
The Minnesota Twins have won four games in a row coming into Tuesday night, as they have taken a four-game lead in the AL Central. The last two of those wins have come in extra innings, as Minnesota has beaten the White Sox and Mariners in extras in consecutive contests. Here, the Twins will look to get things done in nine innings against a Mariners team that has lacked consistency all season long.
If Minnesota is going to win this game, they are going to need to overcome a disadvantage in the starting pitching department. Pablo Lopez will toe the rubber for the Twins to start this game, as he enters with a 5-6 record and a 4.22 ERA. Lopez has been demonstrably worse at home than on the road this season, as he has a 4.98 ERA at Target Field, which could prove problematic for the Twins in this game.
To offset any pitching problems the Twins may have in this game, they will need more timely hitting from Carlos Correa. Correa has hit safely in three straight games, driving in a run in each of those contests. He drove in the winning run in Monday’s 10-inning win over Seattle, and will be counted on to deliver in big spots again in this game.
