MILWAUKEE -- When Gabriel Moya struck out Eric Sogard to conclude the eighth inning in the Twins' 2-0 loss to the Brewers at Miller Park on Tuesday, Joe Mauer trotted off the field doing something that hadn't been done in six years.
Mauer played all eight innings at first base -- and never recorded a putout or assist, making him the first MLB first baseman to go unused since Edwin Encarnacion for the Blue Jays in Baltimore on Aug. 25, 2012. Furthermore, the Twins didn't record a single assist as a team, the first time that has happened since the Yankees accomplished the feat against the Red Sox on September 2, 2014.
