Flexen looking to help slow Twins in finale

Watch live on MLB.TV as the Mariners look to leave Target Field on a high note on Sunday behind right-hander Chris Flexen in the series finale at 11:10 a.m. PT. Righty Matt Shoemaker starts for the Twins. Flexen was strong in his Seattle debut last Saturday, going all the way up to his five-inning threshold by recording 92 pitches and not allowing a run in a win over the Giants. He will likely be on a longer leash this time around against the Twins’ loaded lineup.
