Twins Lose Consecutive Series to Red Sox, Nationals Amid Struggles

News summary

The Minnesota Twins have been struggling recently, suffering a lopsided 13-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox marked by poor defense, ineffective pitching, and minimal offense, dropping their record to 51-57 just before the trade deadline. Pitcher Zebby Matthews allowed five earned runs over 4.1 innings during the loss, now holding a 5.67 ERA and 1.41 WHIP this season. Tensions were visible on the field as pitcher Griffin Jax showed frustration when removed mid-inning, though manager Baldelli emphasized understanding Jax's competitive mindset. Prior to this, the Twins lost a series against the Washington Nationals, falling 7-2 in the final game where Matt Wallner hit a solo home run to break a hitless streak but continued to struggle with a low batting average despite his power potential. The team remains in fourth place in the A-L Central, several games out of the final wild card spot, as they prepare for another series against the Red Sox. Overall, the Twins are facing challenges both on the mound and at the plate, contributing to their disappointing run this season.
