    For the third season in a row, and the second consecutive year in the AL Central, two MLB teams will play a 163rd game.

    As it stands, the Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers are tied for the AL Central lead with identical 86-76 records and will break the tie tonight.

    Minnesota was a bridesmaid last year when the Chicago White Sox defeated them 1-0 in a one-game playoff and now they get a second crack at it this year vs. the Detroit Tigers.

    The game would’ve gone yesterday but a certain Minnesota Vikings QB was playing against his former team at the Metrodome resulting in the Tuesday night game time. Online Sportsbook has the Twins listed as -165 home faves, the Tigers as +150 road ‘dogs and the Over/Under is 8.5.

    The Twins were hot down the stretch, going 10-3 straight up, and putting up some runs, as “Over” bettors cashed in. Minnesota posted 9 Overs, 2 Unders and a Push in their last 12 starts.
