First Pitch: 7:10 PM CDT

Radio: TIBN

Zebby Matthews makes his grand return in the second game out of the All-Star break. Unfortunately for him, a pitcher with a history of home run issues, it will be against the Rockies in Coors Field. Zebby’s pitch count will likely be limited as he made only a single rehab appearance after missing about six weeks.

He’ll match up against Antonio Senzatela and his robust 6.60 ERA with just 49 strikeouts in 91 innings. Frankly, there’s no reason the Twins shouldn’t be able to score a good amount of runs

tonight, but the Twins’ offensive performance doesn’t seem to particularly correlate to opposing pitchers.

Time to get things back on track!
