The Mariners had won 3 straight games with Hisashi Iwakuma on the hill before his last outing when he gave up 6 earned runs in in 5 innings in a 8-4 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Mariners are 12-5 in Iwakuma’s last 17 road starts. The Twins have lost 3 straight games when Mike Pelfrey has gotten the start and in his last outing he went 5 innings and gave up 2 earned runs in a 8-7 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Overall, the Twins are 1-5 in Pelfrey’s last 6 starts.
I have to go with the Twins at this one at home even though they have a struggling pitcher on the mound and they will win this game and stay in the AL Wild Card race.
