The Mets will look to take the rubber game against the Twins today as they run Jon Niese(4-2 4.17) out there to do battle against Scott Baker(6-6 4.61). Niese, like Pelfrey, is a better pitcher at home and his counterpart is not so good away from his home. Baker is 1-4 with a 5.93 ERA away from Target Field this year.

After losing a game to the Braves after yesterday afternoon's loss, the Mets would do well to come out gunning today against a pitcher they faced last year and managed to garner 7 hits in 5 innings of him. They haven't lost a home series since May 10-12 against the Nationals. Let's hope they can keep up with this trend and take this game.
Starting Lineup 6/27/10
