2024 Game 113: Minnesota Twins at Chicago Cubs

Joe Ryan
vs
Javier Assad

Finally a day game at Wrigley.

The Twins scored three on Monday and won with some excellent pitching. They scored three runs again yesterday but were let down with poor pitching. Please score more than three so the pitchers don't have to be great again.

Final tuneup game before taking on the other AL Central contenders. There's a weekend series with the division leaders followed by three games against the team right behind the Twins in the wildcard standings.

2024 Game Log 112 – Twins at Cubs

Twins at a season high 15 games over .500 as they play at the friendly confines for the second game against the scuffling Cubs. Guardians also continuing their post all-star game struggles so Twins currently 3.5 games out of first. Closest since May.

Pablo Lopez on the mound for the Twins and had an excellent outing last week. Perfect time to hit that next gear. Shota Imanaga for the Cubs and he's been their best pitcher. I was at Wrigley in June and Imanaga was the pitcher and looked really good. Could be a fun pitcher's duel tonight.

First pitch at 7:05.
