  "textContent": "MIAMI: A strong pitching matchup headlines Sunday’s series finale as the Minnesota Twins look to complete a three-game sweep over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park.\n\nRight-hander Bailey Ober (5-2, 3.63 ERA) will take the mound for Minnesota, riding a strong stretch of form with back-to-back wins and three victories in his last four starts. He has shown consistency in recent outings, including a complete-game shutout against the Miami Marlins on May 12.\n\nStanding in his way is Boston right-hander Sonny Gray (5-1, 2.93 ERA), who has been in dominant form during a three-game winning streak. Gray has allowed just two runs while striking out 17 across 17 innings in that span, including a six-inning, nine-strikeout performance against the Kansas City Royals.\n\nMinnesota enters the finale with momentum after taking the first two games of the series, winning 8-6 and 4-2. The Twins have found different ways to win, including late offensive surges and a 12-hit performance in Saturday’s victory.\n\nBoston, meanwhile, continues to struggle offensively, having been held to two or fewer runs in 22 games this season (2-20 in those contests). On Saturday, the Red Sox managed just five hits and missed a late opportunity despite loading the bases in the ninth inning.\n\nCeddanne Rafaela provided the lone RBI for Boston, while Minnesota’s Trevor Larnach led the Twins’ offense with a strong 4-for-5 performance.\n\nThe series has also featured a brief benches-clearing moment after a collision at the plate involving Willson Contreras and Victor Caratini, though both players downplayed any intent behind the incident.\n\nWith both pitchers in form, Sunday’s finale sets up as a test of momentum versus control as the Twins chase a sweep and the Red Sox look to salvage the final game.\n\nThe post Twins aim for series sweep as Bailey Ober faces Red Sox in finale appeared first on HUM News English.",
