James Paxton will get the start for the favored Los Angeles here in this starting game. The left-hander from the Boston Red Sox has already picked up a win in his first start against the San Francisco Giants. He ended up going 5.0 scoreless innings in that game giving up four hits with five strikeouts and five walks on 97 pitches.
On the other side, Minnesota will elect to start Bailey Ober in his second appearance of the season. The right-hander lost his first game of the year against the Kansas City Royals on the road after going just 1.1 innings giving up eight earned runs on nine hits with one strikeout and 53 pitches. He left with a very forgettable 54.00 ERA and will look to bounce back from that nightmare tonight.
