Winners in seven of their last 10 contests, the Minnesota Twins are inching closer to the top of the American League Central Division. Tonight, they'll start a three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Bank One Ballpark. Ron Gardenhire's team, particularly centerfielder Torii Hunter, has been on a tear recently. Minnesota took two of three contests from the New York Yankees this past weekend at the Metrodome. Hunter has a modest six-game hitting streak, but during that stretch is batting .480 (12-for-25) with eight RBI. The Twins come into tonight's contest four games behind the Chicago White Sox for first place in the AL Central. Brad Radke starts tonight's game for the Twins. The righthander has won four of his last five decisions and is unbeaten (1-0) in his last two starts.
