Twins 10, Dodgers 7: Embarrassment after sloppiness on defense and more bullpen disasters
Briefly

The Dodgers lost 10-7 to the Twins, characterized by sloppy defense that cost them runs and wasted chances. Yoshinobu Yamamoto initially struggled but managed to settle down after a rough second inning that featured several deep counts and an error leading to unearned runs. The offense, slow to start, tied the game in the fourth with a three-run homer by Freddie Freeman but could not maintain momentum as the game unraveled in later innings, particularly with a disastrous outing from the bullpen.
