Twins vs. Pirates Series Betting Line – May 20: Jeff Locke 11-2 at Home

The Twins vs. Pirates series betting line for Wednesday had Pittsburgh as a -150 home favorite, the Twins at +138 and the total set at 8. 

PITCHING MATCHUP: Twins RH Mike Pelfrey (3-1, 3.23 ERA) vs. Pittsburgh LH Jeff Locke (2-2, 5.40)

Pelfrey is 3-2 with a 4.78 ERA in six career starts against Pittsburgh.

Locke has never faced the Twins and is 1-1 with a 4.05 ERA in four home starts this season.  In fact, Pittsburgh is 11-2 in Locke’s last 13 home starts.

Despite how good the Twins may be playing of late, betting against Locke might not be the wisest move.  He’s a little to steeply priced for our tastes however.

7 of the last 10 games in this series have totaled 8 or higher.  Minnesota is 13-5 in their last 18 overall.
