Desperate Twins counting on Jake Odorizzi to save them

MINNEAPOLIS — Jake Odorizzi, the Twins turn their desperate eyes to you.

With their season on the line Monday night in Game 3 of the ALDS, the Twins will give the ball to Odorizzi, hoping their All-Star right-hander can give them a start like they’ve been missing through the first two games of the series.

“Every single time we’ve had Jake take the mound for us, we go into those games in a very confident place,” manager Rocco Baldelli said Sunday at Target Field. “Right now in this series, it’s very nice to know that we can go out there and know what we’re going to get from Jake.
