Simeon Woods Richardson (3-1, 3.48 ERA) vs. Hayden Birdsong (1-0, 4.40 ERA)

Simeon Woods Richardson with an impressive performance record of 3-1 and an average ERA of 3.48 is one of the main starters for the Twins this season. More on pitching statistics, WHIP over 77.2 innings pitched, Richardson’s WHIP stands at 1.11 which shows that he has been able to display control while on the mound. His strikeouts to walks ratio speaks of his guru-like control of the games and the capacity to avoid collapsing even against an inconsistent Giants team.

On the other side Hayden Birdsong who is relatively new in the Giants’ team although his ERA of 4.40 may depict otherwise. He has 1.53 WHIP over the small 14.1 innings Committee, indicating that some temptations exist but with such a high pick rate. Birdsong will have to exercise better command to negotiate through the Twins’ roster since they have demonstrated the capacity to make the most of any errors committed by pitchers.

Twins’ Offensive Might

Twins are batting for an average of .255 while possessing a slugging percentage of .432 which is backed by 114 homers this season only. Their skills in knocking from the plate and advancing the runners, which has a .324 on-base percentage will prove useful when against the Giants team that has an average pitching with 4.49 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP.

Giants’ Battle at the Plate

The Giants on the other hand are hitting .244 less runs and home runs compared to the Twins. Their slugging percentage stands at .390, this means they have less power in their shots. This has been a weakness; a side that lacks attacking prowess, which can result in a high scoring margin as was the case with the game against the Twins.
