Coming off one of their most memorable victories of the year, the Minnesota Twins were looking for a strong start from Kyle Gibson. The veteran right-hander was coming off his best start of the season against the Kansas City Royals and looked to give the Twins another series victory at Target Field.
Instead, Gibson struggled throughout the night and couldn’t make it out of the fifth inning. Although Minnesota would get more offense than the previous two nights, it wouldn’t be enough as the Boston Red Sox would jump on Gibson early en route to a 9-4 victory.
