Any of the last five games "away" games for the Twins

[Joey Self]

I saw the Twins have a 21-5 record at home, and 12-17 on the road.  That's 26 home games, 29 road matches.  With 5 more at home, are any of them designated as a "home" game for the visitors--the one where the road team takes the field first.  I know there was one like that in Detroit, where the Twins were set to play 5 games.  At the moment, the Twins and the Tigers have played 4 games each where they took the field first.  

Nothing on the schedules I've seen have indicated that either of the Tigers games will be a "home game" for Detroit.  Have any of you heard?

All are home games. They already played one game at Target Field when they we’re designated as the road team.

so can we say then that the Twins are playing 31 home games...since they are being recorded as 21-5 at home?

 

Despite Falvey...home field is important for Minnesota. they are more 'comfortable' playing on their turf and in a short series having that advantage, no matter how small it may seem, is really huge. Doesn't matter about no fans, its their home park and clearly it has made a big difference this short season.

 

I remain concerned about Sano and Cruz. Sano has only 2 hits in his last 26 or so AB's...both HR's. And a ton of k's. Cruz's last 7 games have been equally as bad. He is not producing runs despite tons of chances. Since Sept 1 he has 3 RBI. Can that be? 

With both those key hitters in the tank, Twins are going to have to dig deep down for some other slumping hitters to step up.

Yep, that's why I asked.
