Fri Apr 11 23:20:00 UTC 2025: **Tigers Look to Extend Winning Streak Against Struggling Twins**
MINNEAPOLIS, MN – The Detroit Tigers, currently atop the AL Central, begin a six-game road trip against a struggling Minnesota Twins team on Friday night at Target Field. The Tigers enter the series with a 9-3 record, having recently swept the White Sox and taken two of three from the Yankees. The Twins, on the other hand, have had a less auspicious start to the season, sitting with a less-than-stellar record.
Friday’s pitching matchup features Tigers’ Reese Olson (1-1, 5.06 ERA) against Twins’ rookie David Festa (0-0, 0.00 ERA) in his first start of the 2025 season. Olson, in his third start of the season, will look to build on his previous outing against the White Sox where he earned a quality start and his first win of the season. Festa, a 13th-round pick in 2021, will make his major league debut.
The game will be broadcast exclusively on Apple TV+. The Tigers will hope to capitalize on the Twins’ early-season struggles and extend their winning streak.
