The Minnesota Twins gun for their fifth win in six games in Game 2 of their current series with the struggling Houston Astros on Saturday at Minute Maid Park. The Twins gave the home team a rude treatment as Pablo Lopez allowed one run through seven innings and Trevor Lamach blasted a two-run homer in the 5th inning to secure another win by the hottest team in the AL Central division. Minnesota (32-25) might still be in third place in their division behind Kansas City (35-24) and Cleveland (38-19) but they have won 8 of their last 10 assignments. Meanwhile, disappointments continue to pile on the Astros, who dropped their four of their last five games. Despite a roster filled with high-caliber player, Houston sits in the third place in the AL West standings with a 25-33 record behind rivals the Texas Rangers (27-30) and the Seattle Mariners (32-27). Pitchers Matchup: Twins RHP Joe Ryan (4-3, 2.96 with 73 strikeouts) will face off against Astros LHP Framber Valdez (3-3, 4.34 ERA with 38 strikeouts).
