The magic ends

by @ 8:10 pm. Filed under 2008 Twins

The magic of the past 10 wins for the Twins came to an end today, as they fell to the Brewers, 5-1. All the hallmarks of the streak, timely hitting and solid starting pitching, were not to be seen in this game.

The Twins struggled all night long to get any sort of offense. They were held in check by the Brewer pitchers and only got 3 hits total in the game. The lone run came on a Jason Kubel solo shot in the 9th. Starter Livan Hernandez did not continue the streak’s trend of good starting pitching. He allowed 4 walks, and all 5 runs he gave up came in the 1st 3 innings. However, he did last through the 7th.

This kind of game was looming for the Twins. After being so good for so long, they were bound to have a game where nothing seemed to work. Now that the pressure of continuing the winning is off, they can work on starting another streak.
