Twins vs Mariners Prediction

The Twins won six of the previous ten H2H encounters, including four of the last five. I am backing the Mariners to open this series with a win as they start Bryan Woo, who is their best pitcher this season. Woo registered three consecutive quality starts and allowed just three runs in the process. Zebby Matthews didn’t start this season well, and I think the Mariners will cause him trouble in the opening four or five innings here. Back the Mariners.
