Kohl Stewart makes his 2019 debut trying to win the rubber game of the series. He brings a 6.00 ERA from Rochester, most it it from his previous start. He surrendered six runs over 4.1 innings.
Verlander meanwhile is lossless and continuing his late career resurgence into 2019. After a promising start to the series, I'm feeling less confident about winning it now. But now is as good a time as any to break that lack of losing streak!
Both pitchers are coming off a loss. Syndergaard however gave up two runs over his six innings instead of five without finishing the first inning. This is Syndergaard's first appearance against the Twins in his career. Yesterday was also deGrom's first appearance against the Twins. Time for a repeat performance.
