This play flopped yesterday, but I'm going back as the scorching-hot Twins are without three regulars due to injury, etc. Ty France is the cleanup hitter today and Kody Clemens is in the 5 hole. I don't think Kody Clemens batted in the top five of the order at his own family softball gatherings. Who the heck is DaShawn Keirsey? He's the starting center fielder today and DaBad (not to be confused with Da Bears) offensively: hitting just .116. I might play Twins TT Under 4.5 looking at this motley crew today. Which means they will score 15. Do I even have to say this would be unlucky win No. 13 in a row for Minny? If you believe in such things ...

The Twins have won 12 games in a row, including the last two by shutout, while the Brewers have lost six of their last eight. Pablo Lopez is on the mound today for the Twins, and they’ve won his last two starts with the Minnesota bats averaging eight runs a game. Tobias Myers goes for the Brewers, making his fifth start of the season with the Brewers going 2-2 behind him. Twins injury update: Carlos Correa was put on the 7-Day IL for a concussion occurring Thursday from crashing into Byron Buxton, who is listed as day-to-day. The Twins winning streak continues.

Keep riding the Twins? Why not, until this current hot streak ends? It's now 12 in a row for Minnesota after last night's 3-0 win over the Brew Crew behind a solid effort from Joe Ryan as the beat went on for the Twins even minus Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa, involved in a Thursday on-field collision at Baltimore. Minnesota has now spun back-to-back shutouts and tonight goes with one of its aces, Pablo Lopez, with a 2.77 ERA and 0.97 WHIP, and working into the 7th inning in recent starts. Meanwhile the 21-24 Brewers continue to flounder, and Saturday starter Tobias Myers doesn't give Milwaukee much work than do openers, with his ceiling usually four innings. Play Twins on Money Line
