Sometimes, a loss isn’t so bad. Tonight, one could even say it was expected. The Twins have been far and away the best hitting team in baseball, coming into today having socked more homers than anyone not named the Mariners (yeah still) and run a team wRC+ of 124 - a full five points higher than the next-best team. This same Twins team feasted on the M’s last month, taking three out of four in Seattle in commanding fashion. No shame in losing to these guys in a rebuilding year. None at all.
For seven innings, though, it looked like they could have pulled it out.
