RE-WATCH 2019: Houston Astros at Minnesota Twins, May 2

(Follow this link for an introduction and overview of this series.)

Date and venue: May 2, 2019 at Target Field, Minneapolis, MN
Pitching matchup: RHP Brad Peacock (2-0, 1.64 ERA) vs. RHP José Berríos (4-1, 2.97)
Setup and context: Getaway day for a very successful Twins homestand; they had started 18-10 and were vying for a series win against the Astros (18-13). Berrios had been very good so far and continued his early-season success; Peacock had been spot-starting and wasn't sharp, exiting after the Twins scored six in the fourth inning. The Twins then cruised to an 8-2 victory.
