Brennan Bernardino and the Boston Red Sox will take on Pablo Lopez and the Minnesota Twins on Saturday afternoon.
The Boston Red Sox will take the field again at Target Field for the second game of a three-game series on Saturday afternoon in Minneapolis taking on the Minnesota Twins. The hometown Twins came away with the win in the first game of the series last night 5-2. It was all Minnesota all game and it started in the third inning with second baseman Edouard Julien scoring Willi Castro on an RBI single. It wasn’t until the seventh when more runs started flying in. Castro sacrificed and scored Austin Martin on a throwing error followed by Julien walking and scoring Castro again. Ryan Jeffers then hit a two-run RBI double that took the score to 5-0 heading into the eighth inning. Rafael Devers got the Red Sox’s first runs of the game on a two-run RBI double in the top of the eighth inning, but no one else could find rhythm.
