MLB: Arizona Diamondbacks at Minnesota Twins - Twins (Owings/Blackburn) -113
Game Date:
6/21/2008
Note: This Twins Pitching staff loves to throw at home with the starters possessing an ERA of 3.44 and the Pen, an amazing ERA of 2.04. Nick Blackburn is no exception with an ERA himself here in the dome of 2.37. He has allowed just 2 earned runs the last 2 starts here verses good hitting teams of Texas and the Yankees. His ratios are some of the best in the league when throwing at home. Owings has been just the opposite as he has struggled on the road. Owings allowed a season-high seven earned runs and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings of an 8-3 loss to Kansas City on Sunday. After winning his first four starts, the righthander is 2-5, and has allowed 21 earned runs in 19 innings over his last four starts. The Twins are playing very well right now and they have thrived on NL Teams for a very long time. The last 7 games for this American League squad has seen them outscore their opponents to the tune of 50-18. One of the more interesting things we have for this action is the hitting of Owings and it will be noteworthy to wonder if he will be allowed to with the Designated Hitter Rule in effect. That is one of the advantages that AZ has over their competition when he is on the Hill but that advantage is wiped out tonight. Arinona's bats have been somewhat lifeless recently and they will be in their worst hitting posture for this contest. Away from the desert, they are batting just .219 this year and that goes to a mere .209 when they face a righthanded thrower. Perhaps that is why they have managed only a 6-15 Road Mark over their last 21 played. The Twins love to hit righties and have done so at over .300 their last 10 and a lofty .286 here at this park this year. We have a nice combination of things working for us for this one and so we will make the right play and lay the very small odds.
