The White Sox headed home from Minnesota now holds a three games to two series advantage this season.

Livan Hernandez will make his eighth start of the season for Minnesota this year, and the Twins will look to improve their mark to 7-1 when he’s gotten the starting nod this year. Not many believed the cagey vet would be able to make the transition into the American League, but so far so good. Livan comes into tonight’s start sporting a 4-1 mark with a 4.45 ERA and 1.45 WHIP. He’s allowed a lofty 53 hits in almost 43 innings of work, but has only been scored upon 23 times (21 earned). He mystified the potent Chicago White Sox.

Opposing him will be lefty Mark Buehrle who pitched flawlessly his last time out against Toronto, but an error in the first proved to be his ultimate demise. Over eight innings, the southpaw allowed two unearned runs on five hits, while walking none and striking out seven. He’s averaged seven innings in his last five starts overall, and has allowed three earned runs or less in four of his last five starts. In his career against the Twins, Buehrle is 20-10 with a 3.69 ERA. The 20 victories are the most Buehrle’s collected against any franchise throughout his career. Chicago’s split both of his home starts this season.

The White Sox opened –145 home chalks with the ‘total’ set at 8.5 over -120 for the second game of this three game set. You can get down on both the ‘side’ and ‘total’ at BetUS.com right now!!!
