The Minnesota Twins were absolutely pounded on Thursday night as they lost to the Cleveland Indians by the score of 12-2. That is an old fashioned butt kicking and not the way the Twins wanted to finish up the three game series with the Indians.
Livan Hernandez only pitched three inning because he gave up 12 hits and seven runs! Hernandez gave up two home runs as record dropped to 6-4 in the season. The Twins bullpen also sucked as Brian Bass gave up three runs and Boof Bonser gave up two runs. All around it was just a bad outing for the Twins pitchers.
Matt Macri hit his first home run of the season in the fifth inning to score the Twins first run. In the eighth inning, Mike Lamb hit a sacrafice fly that scored Alexi Casilla for the second and last run for the Twins.
Hopefully the Twins can play better against the Milwaukee Brewers this weekend. The Brewers have been playing some pretty good baseball lately, so the Twins are going to have to play great baseball to get some victories.
