The Minnesota Twins faced a surprising setback against the Colorado Rockies, dropping their second consecutive game in a 10-6 defeat at Coors Field. This was particularly disappointing as the Rockies have struggled throughout the season, vying for the worst record in MLB history. Despite a promising start where the Twins scored three runs in the second inning, they faltered as the Rockies rallied with timely hits and a significant home run from their catcher, Hunter Goodman.

The Twins' pitching woes continued with Zebby Matthews allowing five runs in his first major league start since injury. The Rockies capitalized on the Twins' lack of offensive production in the middle innings, with pitcher Antonio Senzatela leading the charge. The Twins must regroup quickly, as they continue to battle for playoff positioning amid inconsistent performances.
