Game 16: Minnesota vs. Chicago (AL)
Chris Archer on the mound as the Twins go for 4 straight wins and a .500 record. It's pretty easy to feel invincible with Byron Buxton at the top of the lineup, so I say they do it.
White Sox are trying to avoid losing 7 straight and may or may not have Lucas Giolito pitching (I can't find an official announcement of the starter as I'm writing this).

Wasn't going to believe that one was over until it was over.
(And I still can't believe Tyus didn't hit that 3)

Game 15: white Sox @ twins
Hits are hard to come by these days.
How bad are offenses across the league? Gary Sanchez, Gio Urshela and Trevor Larnach have been league average hitters so far, and two of them have OBPs that start with a 2.
