MINNESOTA (22 - 14) at TORONTO (16 - 22)
Brad Radke (R) vs. Ted Lilly (L)

We're forecasting a low-scoring contest tonight when the Toronto Blue Jays host the Minnesota Twins.

Minnesota have gone Under in 10 of 13 games this month. Following yesterday's shut-out against the White Sox they have scored just eight runs in their last four games.

Veteran Minnesota right-hander Brad Radke looks for his fourth straight quality start tonight. He has pitched a total of 21 innings in his last three starts and allowed just four earned runs. Key to his success is the fact he has issued just three walks in those three starts while striking out 11.

Toronto have scored three or less runs in all but one of their last six games. At home this season they have gone Under in 13 of 18 including a perfect six of six when -100 to -125 favorite's. The Blue Jays are batting just .231 at home this season and averaging only 3.7 runs per game.

Ted Lilly heads to the mound for the Blue Jays and the southpaw ranks seventh in the NL this season for BAA with opponents hitting just .232 against him. He should be able to keep the Twins offense in check tonight as Minnesota are hitting .263 against lefty starters this season, down from their overall average of .274. Lilly is 2-1 lifetime against the Twins with an ERA of 3.37 and a WHIP of 0.937.

Tonight we have a pair of experienced starters, solid bullpens and struggling offense's...a great recipe for the Under.

Recommended Play: Under 9.5 -125

Good luck
