Twins, Red Sox Begin 3-Game Series in Boston

The Minnesota Twins and Boston Red Sox both look to rebound as they begin a three-game series in Boston after recent skids. The Twins, who have lost three straight close games despite strong pitching and standout performances from players like Ty France and Harrison Bader, will rely on ace Joe Ryan, who has shown consistency and boasts one of the league's top fastballs. Boston also enters the series after dropping two games in Toronto, despite quality starts from their pitchers. Key Red Sox contributors include Alexander Bregman, who leads the team with a .326 average, and Jarren Duran, who has performed well in recent games. Both teams have struggled to convert strong individual performances into wins, setting the stage for a closely contested series. The matchup will be the first between the two teams this season.
