Twins Slump Deepens Against Tigers

The Minnesota Twins are in freefall, sinking to eight games below .500 after losing eleven of their last fifteen — a brutal slide that began just one game shy of .500. Their pitching has been shredded, especially in a recent demolition by the Detroit Tigers, where Zebby Matthews surrendered seven runs including three homers in six innings, and three different relievers also gave up homers. Detroit, meanwhile, is firing on all cylinders with key injured players back — Carpenter and Torres — smashing ten homers total against Minnesota. Manager Derek Shelton blames poor pitch selection and a lack of timely offense. Now, with Joe Ryan on the mound against the Cardinals, the Twins need a miracle to escape this slump.
