Twins Crushed by Padres in Six-Run Rout | Minnesota Twins News

The Minnesota Twins stumbled to a 6-2 loss to the San Diego Padres in their series opener, as rookie pitcher Connor Prielipp struggled with a six-run outing despite seven strikeouts. The Padres jumped ahead early with Manny Machado’s single and Ty France’s two-run homer, then extended their lead after Kody Clemens tied it up with a clutch triple. Fernando Tatis Jr. and others pushed the score to 6-2, sealing the win with Mason Miller’s dominant ninth. Prielipp’s ERA now sits at 5.57 — his rough stretch continues after an even worse outing last weekend. The Twins aim to rebound tomorrow night against Casey Mize.
