Los Angeles

However, losses in 3 of their last 4 have kept them at a 3.5 game distance. The Angels fell backwards 3-1 to Seattle last night as they had their chance to gain a ground on both the Twins and Astros.
Los Angeles has scored 3 runs or less in 6 of its last 7 games and is seeing its power supply in Albert Pujols struggle as he’s in the midst of an 0 for 15 slump.

He followed that up with by giving up 2 runs in 7 innings against the Houston Astros.
Santiago will look for his 3rd straight solid start as he’s came up huge for the Angels during this playoff push.
Minnesota Twins
The Twins had their chances on Wednesday to get within just a .5 game of the Houston Astros, but failed to do so against the Detroit Tigers.
Minnesota led 3-2 going into the 9th only to blow the lead and trail 4-3 heading into the bottom half of the inning. Minnesota started the inning off with back-to-back doubles, but later had a guy thrown out at home to send the game into extra innings.
Minnesota eventually fell in 13 innings.
