Minnesota Twins vs Boston Red Sox Game 2 Betting Preview
As the Boston Red Sox gear up for the second game of their double-header against the Minnesota Twins on September 22, 2024, both teams bring distinct challenges and opportunities to Fenway Park. The Red Sox, with a 76-78 record, find themselves in the middle of the pack this season, while the Twins, with an 81-73 record, have been slightly more impressive. The Twins hold the edge in the American League matchup, seeking to further position themselves as potential playoff contenders. With the Twins securing the series' first game in a 8-2 game on Friday, the Red Sox will aim to even the series in Game 2 and win it in this third and final game.
In the pitching matchup for this contest, the Twins are starting Zebby Matthews, who is 1-3 with a 6.30 ERA for the season. He will be faced by another struggling pitcher in Kutter Crawford, who is 8-15 with an ERA of 4.19. With both men struggling in 2024, the bullpens will be a focal point for both teams in this game, as their usage in Game 1 could determine how effective the relievers are on both sides in Game 2.
The betting markets suggest a close game, but the leading MLB projection system, THE BAT X, sees slight value in backing the Twins, projecting a win probability slightly higher than the market's estimate. But with both pitchers having their share of struggles going into this game, this one could go either way, especially when the presence of a game before it could throw additional variables into the equation.
