I'm not one to say "this is the game of the season" or this is a "make or break game", so i'm not because i don't believe it, but i'd say this is important from an Elo perspective.

 

You just lost 2 straight to the Twins, in ugly fashion, in your own park. You aren't facing either of their top 2 pitchers today. You've been struggling the past month or so. You'd like to give the team/fans some confidence and avoid the sweep.

 

If there's one game where he needs to dig deep to find something, it's this game. If he can't...well, not good

Here is an odd set of numbers from the Sox-Twins match ups this year

 

The Sox lead the season series 7-5 at this point.

 

In Chicago the Twins are 4-1

In Minneapolis the Sox are 6-1

 

home field advantage, my ass :bang

Where was that record last year :huh :angry:

Garcia pitched a hell of a game for the most part last night and it wasn't good enough. I can't see Loaiza bringing anything better than Garcia did last night. In fact his stuff will almost certainly be worse. Hopefully the Twins are tired after all those runs last night and the earlier start will catch up with them. The sox should be fired up hoping not to get swept. Hopefully the offense will come up huge and Loaiza will be a non factor. However, I don't see that happening without Frank or Ordonez. The Twins usually step it up against the Sox in the second half and I don't see the Sox team that will be taking the field today stepping it up.

 

Twins--5

 

Sox-- 3
