Twins Struggle but Stay Alive | Minnesota Twins News

The Minnesota Twins are in a brutal slump, losing four out of five games in August and getting swept after blowing a five-run lead against the Phillies. Manager Derek Shelton calls it frustrating, as the team has been walked off twice in Seattle and once in Milwaukee — far from playoff form. With just 4-10 in August, they’re still clinging to a one-and-a-half-game wild card lead, but players like Josh Bell insist belief remains strong, waiting for that spark. Brooks Lee’s grand slam and Kody Clemens’ homer gave them an early edge, but cold bats and missed opportunities derailed the comeback. They know time is running out — and they’re determined to turn things around before the season ends. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
