The Twins fell behind 3-0 but broke things open and put up seven runs in the seventh for insurance.

MLB Betting Trends

Chicago

The White Sox are 3-9 in their last 12 Game 3’s of a series, but 7-2 in their last nine games following a loss.

Minnesota

The Twins are 43-17 in their last 60 against a team with a losing record, but just 2-6 in their last eight home games.

Prediction:

Odorizzi has been pretty good this season for the most part, outside of a few bad outings. He carries a 7-1 record at home with a 3.29 ERA. Over 5.1 innings of work against Chicago this year, Odorizzi hasn’t given up a run. Giolito has been very strong for Chicago this year and is able to get deep into games. He is 8-2 on the road with a 2.91 ERA, however he has a 6.30 ERA against the Twins over two starts this year. Minnesota just has too much power in their bats to expect them to lose twice to the Sox.

MLB Prediction: Minnesota Twins -175
