Minnesota Twins (73-84) at San Francisco Giants (65-92) — Game Preview
The Minnesota Twins (73-84) visit Oracle Park to face the San Francisco Giants (65-92) tonight, with first pitch set for 9:45 PM ET. Minnesota’s pitching staff has been the shakier of the two, working to a 4.60 team ERA against a Giants staff sitting at 4.37, even as both offenses land in the same range at .244 and .247 respectively. Kody Clemens leads the Twins with 26 home runs and 76 RBIs, the kind of power production that has kept Minnesota’s lineup respectable through a difficult year. Luke Keaschall sits second on the club at a .276 average, just behind Alan Roden’s team-best .284.
Josh Bell has driven in 91 runs for the Twins, well ahead of Drew Gilbert’s team-leading 43 RBI for the Giants. Gilbert also paces San Francisco with 11 home runs out of center field, while Jonah Cox has hit .280 in a part-time role, the best mark on the Giants’ roster. San Francisco continues to play out the string without Rafael Devers and Matt Chapman, both lost for the season to surgery, leaving a reshaped lineup to close out the year at home.

Players to Watch: Minnesota Twins vs. San Francisco Giants
Minnesota Twins
Luke Keaschall — 2B. A .276 average and a .367 on-base percentage have made Luke Keaschall one of the more consistent table-setters in Minnesota’s lineup this season. He ranks second on the team in batting average, a few points behind Alan Roden’s team-leading .284, and his .384 slugging percentage rounds out a solid all-around season at the plate.
Kody Clemens — 2B. Power is the calling card for Kody Clemens, who leads the Twins with 26 home runs and has driven in 76 runs to go with it. He is hitting .236 on the season, a profile built around the long ball rather than average, and his home run total is the headline number in Minnesota’s lineup this evening.
Josh Bell — DH. Slotted as Minnesota’s primary designated hitter, Josh Bell has driven in 91 runs this season. He is hitting .258 with 20 home runs, giving the Twins a middle-of-the-order threat capable of doing damage even in a lost season.
San Francisco Giants
Drew Gilbert — CF. Eleven home runs and 43 RBI have made Drew Gilbert the most productive power source in a Giants lineup stripped down by injuries. He’s hitting .237 with a .327 on-base percentage and a .396 slugging mark, numbers that lead San Francisco’s rebuilt outfield.
Jonah Cox — CF. No hitter on the Giants’ active roster has a higher average than Jonah Cox’s .280 mark. He has added a .321 on-base percentage and a .424 slugging percentage in a part-time role, flashing enough contact ability to warrant a longer look in September.
Christian Koss — SS. Manning shortstop for an injury-thinned Giants infield, Christian Koss is hitting .230 with four home runs and 12 RBI this season. His .273 on-base percentage and .326 slugging mark round out a modest but steady contribution down the stretch.
