On a beautiful Tuesday evening in Minneapolis, the Los Angeles Dodgers outpowered the Minnesota Twins 6-to-3. Tyler Glasnow was brilliant and showed the Dodgers he could be their ace.
Tyler Glasnow breezed through the first inning against the weak-hitting Minnesota Twins, and he used nine pitches to mow down the Twins in the second. In the third, Glasnow allowed a double but continued to dominate. Glasnow used his fastball to baffle the opposition. If Outman could catch a line drive, Glasnow would have a no-hitter. His control is pristine. After seven innings, Glasnow struck out fourteen, walked none, and allowed three hits.
In the fourth, James Outman blasted a three-run homer after Will Smith and Teoscar Hernàndez. After Freddie Freeman singled in the fifth, Smith homered.
Alex Vesia pitched the eighth and allowed a solo home run.
The newest Dodger pitcher Connor Brigdon allowed two solo home runs in the ninth before retiring a hitter, but finished the victory.
