Season series: Twins lead 1-0.
Minnesota went into this set off back-to-back wins in pitchers’ duels. Then the Twins clobbered the Yanks 11-2 in Thursday’s lid-lifter. Minnesota had 5 doubles and 4 HRs in the opener.
The Yankees went 5-2 against the Twins last season and 6-1 against them in 2021. But they were out of Thursday’s game from the outset. RHP Jhony Brito was lit up in a 9-run 1st inning. New York did well to avoid any key bullpen arms in playing out its worst defeat (margin) since Sept. 2.
