Archer, seeking his first quality start for the Pirates, is 4-0 with a 1.48 ERA and 0.92 WHIP in five career starts at Target Field. He allowed two runs (one earned) and struck out seven over 4 1/3 innings on the road against the Twins on July 14.

Berrios is coming off one of his shortest outings of the season when he lasted just four innings vs. the Indians, allowing four runs on four hits. The long ball has been an issue for Berrios, but he's only allowed one home run in his past six starts.
