The Washington Nationals will target their fourth win in five games against the Minnesota Twins on Friday at Target Field.
The Nationals are 3-2 in their last five games and took two games against the Cincinnati Reds in their recent series. Washington is pitching a 4.60 ERA and averaging 4.5 runs per game in their last five games. They currently sit last in the NL East with a 41-61 record.
The Twins are 2-3 in their last five games to stay in fourth in the AL Central with a 49-53 slate. Minnesota’s offense is putting up impressive numbers in their last five games, during which they average 5.3 runs per game on a .254 batting average. However, lethargic pitching continues to be a concern for this ball club as they have only posted a 5.70 ERA in their last five.

Our Washington Nationals vs Minnesota Twins Prediction
The Nationals seem like a solid pick to steal Game 1 at Target Field. Washington, 10-4 SU in its last 14 games against Minnesota, will start left-handed pitcher MacKenzie Gore on Friday. Gore yielded eight earned runs in his last start vs. the Padres, but this game might give him an opportunity for redemption.
Zebby Matthews, who sports a 6.26 ERA in his last five starts, will be making his first start since giving up five earned runs over four innings against the Rockies. In what is shaping up to be a high-scoring affair, you have to feel good about Washington’s position in this matchup since Minnesota is 1-4 SU in its last 5 games when playing at home against Washington.
Our betting prediction for the Washington Nationals vs. the Minnesota Twins: The Twins -1.5 Runs.
