The start of today’s matchup between the Texas Rangers and the Minnesota Twins has been delayed due to rain in the area. First pitch was initially scheduled for 4:10 p.m. ET, but inclement weather will push it back.
More information will be added when a decision is made on when play will officially begin. Both teams will make every effort to play, since tomorrow marks the official end of the MLB regular season.
There are also some major seeding implications on the line. The Texas Rangers are currently tied with the Houston Astros for the top seed in the American League West with a 79-81 record on the season. Houston is facing off with the Athletics later tonight, and the eventual division winner will earn the third seed in the playoffs while the other will see their season come to an end.
The Twins have already been eliminated from playoff contention, but would love to play spoiler against this American League opponent.
Looking at the odds, the Rangers enter as -125 favorites on the moneyline and hold +134 odds of covering the -1.5 run line on DraftKings Sportsbook. The Twins hold +104 odds of winning outright with the run total set at eight runs.
