Latest news and updates about the Twins
Box Score For the second straight night, the Brewers used the help of a mistake made by third baseman Royce Lewis to tie the game, making way for the offense to take care of business later on. Tonight’s win secures their seventh series win over their last nine. Despite a lack of offense from both […]
The Twins got a career-best start from Connor Prielipp, who struck out eight Brewers and held them to three hits in a six-inning start, but could only prop up a single run despite outhitting the visiting Milwaukee victors. After squandering a second-inning opportunity with two men in scoring position and nobody out — then a […]
First Pitch: 6:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy The Twins aren’t actually THAT far below .500, but when a Friday night home game feels like a road trip, “core” players are being optioned to Triple-A, and the Chicago White Sox are above you in the standings, it’s hard not […]
Box Score The Brewers got some help tonight, as a mistake by Royce Lewis and a key (see: correct) call by the umpires allowed them to tie and later take the lead in the eighth inning in Minnesota, giving the Brewers their 25th win of the season against the Twins. Milwaukee got things started with […]
A rookie pitcher making his second MLB start mostly stymied the Twins’ offense, and when this team gets into a bullpen battle, they’d lose to the Bad News Bears. Inning-by-inning notes: 1: We begin a sparsely-attended game with a Jackson Chourio double; he scores on a William Contreras single. Three hits for Milwaukee in the […]

The Milwaukee Brewers, winners of six of their last seven games, are back on the road this weekend, as they’ll take on the Minnesota Twins after a solid homestand that included a pair of series wins against the Yankees and Padres. The Twins have also won each of their last two series, taking two of […]
One of the bright spots of the Minnesota Twins’ shaky start to the 2026 season has been the play of Ryan Jeffers. Whether offensively (.542 SLG, .948 OPS) or in his wizardry of the new ABS challenge system, Jeffers is perhaps the most reliable offensive contributor not hailing from Baxley, GA. If one were building […]
Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers finally look a bit like what we’re used to, as they went on a five-game winning streak earlier this week before a heartbreaking loss to the Padres on Wednesday night. They’re now headed to Minnesota and Chicago, where they’ll take on their top interleague rival in the Twins […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are back on the road, and this time, they won’t have to travel too far. Beginning this weekend, the Brewers are on a two-series trip through the Twin Cities and Chicago, as they’ll take on a pair of rivals in the Twins and Cubs. First up is Minnesota, as the Brewers will […]
Another Thursday of Blog Lord game coverage, another coveted reverse jinx. I fixed Kody Clemens a couple weeks ago, and now hopefully the same can be said for Zebby Matthews after he delivered the best start of his career. This Miami lineup is sneakily talented, but you wouldn’t know it if you only watched this […]

I don’t even know what to say about this game. We just witnessed Bailey Ober, 88 MPH fastball and all, toss an 89 pitch complete game shutout. He did it using mostly changeups and fastballs, picking up 4 strikeouts and a 43% whiff percentage with the changeup. The only blemishes on his day were singles […]

The Twins had a 3-3 week, dropping two to the Nats, taking two from the Guardians, and currently sit last in the AL Central with an 18-23 record. First, the good news: after a slow start to the season, Byron Buxton is back to being a menace at the plate. Since April 13, Buxton has […]
Before any game action today, a quick shoutout to all the Moms out there this 2026 Mother’s Day! I just returned from a trip with my mom to see the Twins in Washington, D.C.! I calculated that she has now seen 10 baseball stadiums (one I’ll never get to—Metropolitan Stadium). It probably helps to have […]

The Twins had two hits in eleven innings and won a baseball game at Progressive Field. Sure, man. Good team or no good team, the Buck Truck keeps rolling, as evidenced by Byron’s leadoff blast to left field in a rain-delayed Saturday night game against the Cleveland Guardians. Buxton’s bomb, his 13th of the year, […]
First Pitch: 1:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy Forty games of baseball is probably “enough” games of baseball to feel like you have a sense of the team you’re watching. After 40 games, my sense is roughly the same as it was after 34 games, when I remarked that […]
After a bummer of a first inning, Connor Prielipp settles in nicely and the Twins bumblebat their way into an almost-comeback… until You Know What happens. Inning-by-inning notes: 1: Cleveland with City Connects, and these have a Stoopid Number Font. Stoopid Letter Font, too, but the numbers are worse. Buxton with a leadoff double! Will […]

Thanks to an offensive outburst by Keibert Ruiz, which included 2 doubles and a solo shot, the Nationals beat the Twins 7-5 to secure the series win and an even 3-3 homestand. The win brought their record on the year to 18-20, good for sole possession of second place in the NL East and 2 […]
I wrote in my preview about Simeon Woods Richardson’s struggles so far this year, and this start was no different. It didn’t matter what pitch he threw, the Nationals saw the ball well, weren’t chasing, and made him work for every one of the few outs he could get. As the titular Chappell Roan once […]
