How to Watch Twins vs DodgersDate: Tuesday, July 22, 2025Time: 10:00 PM EDTChannel: MLB Network (Regionalized), Spectrum SportsNet (Los Angeles Broadcast), TWINS.TV (Minnesota Broadcast)Stream: DIRECTV (WATCH NOW)
The Dodgers are in the middle of their worst stretch of the season, but were finally able to stop the bleeding in the series opener by picking up a 5-2 win over the Twins. Shohei Ohtani pitched three innings, giving up one run, and also hit a two-run homer.
While Minnesota is 11.5 games back of the AL Central lead, they are only four games under .500 and could crawl into Wild Card contention with a solid run down the second half. Tasked with slowing down a loaded Los Angeles lineup, Simeon Woods Richardson draws the start tonight, and he is putting together a solid season with a 5-4 record and 3.95 ERA.
Fresh off his first All-Star appearance, Yoshinobu Yamamoto takes the mound for the Dodgers as they try to win back-to-back games for only the third time since the start of July. It might not take much for their lineup to heat back up, and despite losing 10 of their last 13 games, Los Angeles still finds themselves with a 3.5-game lead in the NL West.
This is a great MLB matchup that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
