The Minnesota Twins are road favorites to win their series finale against the San Francisco Giants ahead of the 3:45 p.m. ET first pitch at Oracle Park on Wednesday, Sept. 23.

My top Twins vs. Giants predictions and MLB picks call for Minny to eke out the win in another low-scoring game this afternoon. 

Who will win Twins vs Giants today: Twins moneyline

For help understanding probabilities, see our odds calculator.

Minnesota Twins starter Connor Prielipp has found a groove down the stretch with a 2.90 xERA and 3.67 xFIP across his past five appearances, which includes consecutive wins. 

Additionally, his 19.0% strikeout-to-walk rate during the run pops off the page.

The San Francisco Giants are also fielding a depleted lineup, with Drew Gilbert the lone hitter with at least 250 plate appearances in the majors this season.

Better yet, San Fran is sending lefty Cesar Perdomo to the bump, and he’s been teed up for a 6.65 xERA and 6.11 xFIP across his past two starts.

I recommend the Minny moneyline to 60%.

Covers COVERS INTEL: The Minnesota Twins and San Francisco Giants respectively rank 19th and 23rd in blast-contact percentage in September, which paves the way for this total to go Under the number.

Twins vs Giants Over/Under pick: Under 7.5

This Under 7.5 is in play to 53.5% because the Twins are also missing multiple impact hitters, and Oracle Park ranks 26th in Baseball Savant Park Factor and 28th in home runs

Both offenses have also been dreadful the past two weeks. 

Minnesota ranks 29th in xwOBA and 26th in ISO, while San Francisco checks in 24th and 22nd, respectively. 

Finally, there is also potential for the forecasted westerly breeze of 10-12 mph to gust closer to 20 mph and in from left-center field to provide a huge pitching advantage this afternoon.

Twins vs Giants home run prediction: Victor Bericoto

Giants outfielder Victor Bericoto has five homers and a solid .192 ISO across 102 plate appearances, and he sports an elite 59.5% hard-hit rate against lefties. So, in a game I’m forecasting to be low-scoring, the San Fran rookie checks out as a flier candidate to leave the yard this afternoon.
