SEATTLE MARINERS (15-16) AT MINNESOTA TWINS (13-17) Wednesday, April 29, 2026 (Interstat) — Target Field, Bloomington, Minn. (Interstat) — 1:10 p.m. CT Weather: 43 degrees, clear

MINNEAPOLIS (Interstat) — The Seattle Mariners aim for a series victory Wednesday afternoon when they face the Minnesota Twins in the finale of a three-game set at Target Field.

Seattle (15-16) enters following a 7-1 win Tuesday, evening the series after Minnesota’s 11-4 victory Monday. The Mariners are projected as -1.5 favorites, with Interstat’s game simulator forecasting a 5-2 Seattle win and a 58.4% probability of victory per its ELO system. The over/under is 7.5.

Probable pitchers for Seattle are right-handers George Kirby (4-2) or Taj Bradley (3-1). The Mariners have not announced a starter, though Kirby holds the stronger season resume with a lower earned-run average and a longer track record. The Twins have not named their starter opposite Seattle’s righty.

Seattle’s Josh Naylor is a player to watch after a 3-for-5, one home run, four-RBI performance Tuesday. In nine games prior, Naylor has multiple hits in five contests, including a 3-for-4 showing April 20 against and a 2-for-2 effort April 17 versus Texas. He is batting .350 over his last five games.

For Minnesota (13-17), right-hander Joe Ryan is a key figure after taking the loss Tuesday, allowing two earned runs on six hits with six strikeouts over six innings. Ryan has been inconsistent of late, surrendering four earned runs in a loss April 23 at the New York Mets. He has posted quality starts in three of his last five outings, however, including a seven-inning, two-run effort April 11 at Toronto.

The Twins are coming off three consecutive series losses, dropping two of three at Tampa Bay before splitting the first two games against Seattle. Minnesota has lost four of its last six.

Seattle has won five of its last seven overall, including a 3-2 victory Sunday at St. Louis. The Mariners swept a three-game series against the Cardinals last weekend.

After Wednesday’s game, Seattle returns home to face Kansas City for a three-game series beginning Friday, then hosts Atlanta for three games starting Monday, May 4. Minnesota opens a four-game homestand Thursday against Toronto before traveling to Washington for a three-game series May 5-7.

First pitch is scheduled for 1:10 p.m. under clear skies with temperatures in the low 40s.
