The Giants look to maintain their early season success against the Twins on "Friday Night Baseball." 

There may not be a bigger surprise in baseball than San Francisco (24-14), which burst out of the gate and hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. The Giants just took a series at Wrigley Field from the red-hot Cubs, keeping pace in a stacked NL West. 

Outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (.301 batting average), third baseman Matt Chapman (seven home runs), and utility ma Wilmer Flores (33 RBI) are among those keying such a strong start. 

It's a different story in Minnesota, where the Twins are looking to claw their way out of an early-season hole and back into contention in the AL Central. Star third baseman Royce Lewis is back after a stay on the Injured List, which should shore up a lineup that also includes Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa.
