Despite Joe Mauer being out of the lineup here today (rest) we will be on the Twins at home. The Twins are a home team all the way this year night and day from home to away. They have a 22-13 home record and they have been hitting LHP all year long. .351 avg last 5 and they are 23-4 their last 27 home games vs. LHP starter. 10-1 in inter league play. Blackburn is coming off three road starts in a row where he posted a 1.14 WHIP and a 2.57ERA. In his previous 3 home starts he posted 21IP 3 ER. He pitches well both home and away. Look for him to throw a gem here today as the Twins are 45-16 in their last 61 games at home.

pirates will have Zach Duke going and he has been solid on the road, but better at home. He's got a 3.51 ERA vs. 2.77 home ERA. His day ERA 3.72 vs. 2.82 night. Pit is 14-37 in Dukes starts where he is the dog. With the line rising late here I'm still going with the Twins on the money line.
