## Resource

Chicago White Sox host the Minnesota Twins in a pivotal AL Central showdown, with Chicago leading the series 6-4 and sitting atop the division at 73-67. The Twins trail at 67-73 but remain competitive, especially on the road. Friday’s opener pits Twins’ Zebby Matthews (9-8, 4.58 ERA) against White Sox’s Erick Fedde (8-7, 4.16 ERA), with Chicago favored by oddsmakers. The Sox boast a potent offense, especially at home, led by Miguel Vargas’s 30 doubles and 29 homers, while the Twins struggle against power hitting. Both teams are winless in their last 10 games — Chicago 5-5, Twins 4-6 — but Minnesota outscored opponents by nine runs during that stretch. With key players sidelined for both squads, this series could reveal which team has deeper roster talent as the season winds down.
