Twins Edge Braves in Nail-Biter | MLB News

The Twins pulled off a heart-pounding win, mirroring their explosive start from yesterday—four runs in the first inning, fueled by smart hitting and clutch defense. But this time, the bullpen held strong when it mattered most, unlike the shaky performance the night before. Martín Perez got torched early as the Twins capitalized on his wild zone, while Bailey Ober struggled with velocity but kept things close. Ronald Acuña Jr. gave Atlanta a spark with two runs in the fifth, cutting the lead to 4-2. The Twins had multiple chances to extend it, especially in the eighth with bases loaded, but couldn’t deliver—another déjà vu moment. Kody Clemens saved the day with a huge defensive play, and the Twins walked away with the win, staying hot for that elusive wild card spot.
