Twins News
The Twins' frustrations continue as they fell 10-4 to the Tigers, despite Byron Buxton's explosive return, where he launched his 19th homer of the season right out of the gate. Unfortunately, the pitching woes didn't let up, Taj Bradley struggled again, surrendering three homers and marking a troubling trend with his third consecutive rough start. The offense remains inconsistent, showing flashes of power with four solo homers but ultimately falling short against Detroit's lineup. At 30-37, the Twins are treading water, and with an alarming 5.4 runs allowed per game over the past week, their chances of climbing out of the AL Central cellar are dwindling. As they gear up for another showdown with the Tigers, the urgency to turn things around is palpable.
