a rough stretch

Twins News

The Minnesota Twins continue to slide further into the abyss, dropping their last outing to the Kansas City Royals 8-6, a game marred by defensive blunders and a rain delay. Kody Clemens provided some excitement with two home runs and stellar defense, but individual highlights can't mask the team’s dismal state, now at 29-34 and riding a 2-5 streak that has seen them lose by a combined 15 runs. In a bid to address their pitching woes, the Twins signed Austin Voth to a minor league deal, adding depth as they grapple with injuries and inconsistent performances. The vibe is as cold as the rain delaying the game, and fans are left wondering how this team can turn it around before the season slips away.
