MLB Friday
Was gonna make the W/S my play of the day over the Cubs but found it was all ready in progress!! 
Minnesota @ New York Mets
Kevin Slowey (7-4, 4.58 ERA)
Mike Pelfrey (9-2, 2.69 ERA)
The Twins had the second-best interleague winning percentage (.579 – the Yankees were tops at .583) coming into this season, but they’ve been up and down in interleague play this season, with their midweek sweep at the hands of the Brewers dropping them to 7-8 in interleague play in 2010.
The Mets come into this series sporting one of the best home records in the league, as they’re tied with the Rangers and Red Sox for the most home wins in the majors.
The Mets are 9-1 in their last 10 home series, and they’re 9-3 in home series this season.
The Mets have won five straight home series, and in that span, they’re 21-9 overall (12-3 home, 9-6 road).
Pelfrey didn’t have his best stuff last time out against the Yankees, but he’s been the Mets’ best starter this season and one of the best in the league. Prior to that loss, he’d been 5-0 with a 1.66 ERA in his previous six starts.
Pelfrey has been excellent at home this season, going 5-0 with a 1.87 ERA in eight starts.
The Mets are 7-1 in Pelfrey’s home starts.Pelfrey was 5-1 in his first eight interleague starts.
