Dodgers manager Dave Roberts discussed some of the inconsistent moments in Tyler Glasnow’s first three starts of the season prior to Tuesday’s game.

Roberts remarked in the visitor’s dugout at Target Field, “He’s obviously a really talented pitcher, really competing well.” “I believe that what we haven’t witnessed is that he has been in sync with his speech throughout.

He’s a large man (6 foot 8). Everything is moving extremely quickly. Thus, it is undoubtedly difficult to sort of keep that under control. It will therefore be a lot of fun to get everything synced up from pitch one to pitch 101.

On Tuesday, the Minnesota Twins felt synchronized.

The Dodgers prevailed 6-3 thanks to a dominant performance by Glasnow, who gave up only three hits and struck out 14 in seven scoreless innings against a young Twins lineup.

Ten of the first fifteen batters Glasnow faced were strikeouts, including six consecutive batters at one point. The Twins’ No. 9 Һitter, rookie outfielder Austin Martin, was the only player in the lineup when Glasnow did not strike out on Tuesday. Martin’s first major-league Һit, and the Twins’ sole Һit through five innings, came in the third inning when he singled off the glove of a diving James Outman in right-center field. In the sixth inning, he scored another run by pulling a strong ground ball down the third-base line.

After finishing seven innings on just 88 pitches, Glasnow became the first Dodgers starter to throw into the seventh inning, tying his career-high of 14 strikeouts.

The four-seam fastball from Glasnow was untouchable by the Twins. 45 of them were thrown by him, average 96.2 mph. The Twins attempted to Һit 25 of them, but only managed to Һit 12, foul off seven, and put six in play. Twelve more were taken for called strikes.

Their performance was not much better against his slider, which they swung at six times out of twelve, or the curveball, which they missed three times out of a total of twenty-one swings and misses.

In consecutive innings, the Dodgers supported Glasnow with three-run home runs.

James Outman blasted the game-winning home run in the seventh inning of Monday’s victory after going 2 for 25 with 14 strikeouts over that time. He made a joke about practicing the same hitting techniques with a cricket bat as Shohei Ohtani in the hopes of matching the hоt-hitting Ohtani’s performance.

It could be making a difference. The Dodgers scored their first runs of the game in the fourth inning when Outman, who had singled in his opening at-bat on Tuesday, Һit a three-run home run 422 feet to straightaway center field.

Ohtani’s current 12-for-27 streak over his last six games has eclipsed Mookie Betts’ scorching start, hiding the trutҺ that Will Smith is hitting just as good as either of them.

Of his first 12 games, Smith has had hits in 10, with multiple hits in five of those. His batting average against the Twins was even at.400 after going 2-for-5 that evening.

The Dodgers’ second three-run home run of the evening, an opposite-field blast that doubled their advantage in the fifth inning, was his second Һit of the evening on Tuesday.

The Twins smashed three home runs in the final two innings, one off Alex Vesia in the eighth and two off Connor Brogdon, making his Dodgers debut, in the ninth, feeling so happy that they had pulled away from the game after seven innings.
