By: Kelly Thesier/MLB.com

The Twins are set to close out a three-game set with their Fort Myers crosstown rivals, the Red Sox, at City of Palms Park this afternoon. It’s a split squad day for Boston so their manager Terry Francona is in Port Charlotte with the other half of the club to face the Rays.
