Overview

  • Tuesday's series opener at Camden Yards was postponed due to rain, rescheduling the game as part of a Wednesday doubleheader.
  • The Twins, now 21-20, are above .500 for the first time this season after an eight-game win streak, including a dominant sweep of Baltimore last week.
  • Baltimore enters the series with a 15-24 record, struggling with injuries and inconsistent performances, particularly in their starting rotation.
  • Minnesota's Simeon Woods Richardson (2-2, 4.01 ERA) and Baltimore's Cade Povich (1-3, 5.55 ERA) are slated to start Game 1 of the doubleheader.
  • Camden Yards has been impacted by frequent spring rainstorms, leading to schedule adjustments like this week's postponed opener.
