The Boston Red Sox will face the Minnesota Twins on 15th April 2022, and it will be the first meeting of both these teams with each other in this season.

Xander has started off the season quite well, and if he continues to play like this, then he can be an MVP candidate this season for the American League.
Carlos Correa was the big-money signing for the Twins during the offseason, and he started to show glimpses of his stardom on the field, which is a very promising sign for the Twins.
This is a good spot for the Boston Red Sox to pick up their form, as the Twins will find it very hard to contain them during this series.
