Minnesota Twins Win 12th Straight Game, Match Franchise Record Streak

The Minnesota Twins have achieved a remarkable 12-game winning streak for the second consecutive season, matching one of the longest streaks in team history and solidifying their place in recent sports history alongside elite teams. This resurgence follows a slow start to the season and has propelled the Twins from a 13-20 record to 25-20 in just a couple of weeks, with dominant pitching performances such as Joe Ryan's six scoreless innings against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Twins' winning streak is notable in MLB and across major sports leagues, with their recent hot streak being their longest since 1991, a year when the team won the World Series. Despite this momentum, the Twins are still in third place in the competitive American League Central and will aim to convert their streak into a playoff berth. Players have maintained a focused and subdued locker room atmosphere to avoid the pitfalls experienced last year after a similar streak ended in a losing slide. Offensively, contributions from players like Kody Clemens and Ty France have supported strong pitching efforts, showcasing a balanced team effort during this streak.
