Sonny Gray takes the ball at home with a chance to give the Twins a series lead.
They now take home-field advantage and get to play a strong hand by starting Sonny Gray in Tuesday afternoon’s Game 3.
Gray has been spectacular in day games this season, as opposing bats have averaged .185 against his 1.80 ERA in 13 starts under the sun.The right-handed veteran has provided the Twins steady pitching all season, averaging roughly 5 ²/₃ innings at a 1.15 WHIP throughout his 32 starts.With that performance included, he hasn’t allowed more than one earned run in six starts with 5.8 strikeouts in that window.
As far as Gray’s concerns regarding the Astros, they were one of his favorite lineups to face this year. Gray struck out eight hitters in his two starts with a 2.77 ERA.But he’s been up to the task when it’s presented itself — striking out an average of 4.8 per start to complement a 2.39 ERA. The market has Gray’s strikeout prop underestimated in this game — he wields momentum and so do the Twins in this series.Caesars Sportsbook promo codes: Grab $250 in Kentucky or $1K first bet in other states for MNFJoe Buck's wife hits announcer with perfect 'Monday Night Football' digStar receiver going on injured reserve with Vikings season in peril
