As well as the bats worked yesterday, they didn't work at all today. The Twins were shut out by the Jays 3-0 getting only 4 hits and striking out 17 times. Tyler Mahle threw 4.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, 2 walks and 3 Ks to take the loss.
Elliot Soto was 3/3 with a stolen base today and is still in the mix to start the season as the Twins' 2B.
Today, the Twins beat the Yankees 6-4, scoring 4 runs in the top of the 9th. Emmanuel Rodriguez was 2/4 with a 3-run homer in the 9th. Edouard Julien homered and nearly hit another, getting thrown out at 2nd on a fine play by Aaron Judge in left.
Pablo Lopez started the game giving up 2 runs on 2 hits, 2 walks and 2 Ks in 3 innings. Kenta Maeda pitched 5 innings, giving up 2 runs on 3 hits, 3 walks and 5 Ks in 5 innings to pick up the win. Michael Boyle walked 2 and allowed no hits or runs in the bottom of the 9th to pick up the save.
