Twins-Yankees Game Postponement? Scattered Storms Anticipated

Scattered thunderstorms were initially forecast throughout the Twins-Yankees game on Saturday, however, as the game was set to begin, forecasts were calling for storms more towards the evening.  This one has a 1:05 pm start with a 50% to 60% chance of showers and storms from 9 am right through the evening hours.  The Yankees open at -135.

This one should be a hot series and the Yankees did have a definite edge over the Twins.  They had won 16 of the last 19 games in the series.   Only one of the Twins three wins over this time frame was on the road.  This series is being played in New York.  The Yankees were actually 40-11 in the last 51 games dating back to 2015 coming into this series.  The Twins had only won two consecutive games in the overall series twice over this span.  The Yankees opened as a -130 favorite in Game 1.

It was the Twins who came out on top in Game 2 however, and they go 10-4 on the season.

Carlos Correa homered for the second straight game and hit a go-ahead, two-run double in the eighth inning off Clay Holmes as the Twins rallied to beat the New York Yankees 4-3 on Friday night.

Correa had his second multi-RBI game since returning to the Twins.
