Game 35: Minnesota Twins at Detroit Tigers

First Pitch: 12:08 pm CST
TV: MLBN, FS-D
Radio: Go 96.3, TIBN
Know Thine Enemy: Bless You Boys

Today's game gives the Twins the chance to take their first series against Detroit this season, as they evened the series with a solid win last night (featuring 3 - yes, three! - Twins Triples). Today's rubber match features Anibal Sanchez throwing for Detroit, and Mike Pelfrey for Minnesota. Pelfrey, whose spot in the rotation came only after the Ervin Santana suspension, has been pretty good for the Twins so far this season - he's 3-0 with a sub-3.00 ERA. Who saw that coming? Anibal Sanchez hasn't had the greatest start for Detroit this season, but has historically done pretty well against the Twins. He last faced Minnesota 4/28, when he gave up just 3 runs over 7 innings.
