Minnesota Twins lose 6-4 to Dodgers as Glasnow ties career high with 14 Ks
Tyler Glasnow tied his career high with 14 strikeouts in seven scoreless innings, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Minnesota Twins 6-3 on Tuesday night.
James Outman and Will Smith each hit a three-run homer as Los Angeles won for the third time in four games. Mookie Betts walked three times and scored a run.
Glasnow (3-0) struck out Matt Wallner looking to end the seventh inning, marking the third time in his career he picked up 14 strikeouts. He also accomplished the feat for Tampa Bay last season against the Red Sox and in April 2021 against Texas.
“He had complete control of the game,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “That was as dominant as we’ve seen him all year, and (we) expect more of that to come.”
Outman’s drive was his second homer in as many games. He reached the batter’s eye in center against Louie Varland (0-2) in the fourth.
Smith connected for his first homer of the season in the fifth, driving in Betts and Freddie Freeman with an opposite-field shot into the first few rows of seats in right field.

That was plenty of run support for Glasnow, who kept Minnesota’s bats quiet all night long. Glasnow struck out two or more Twins in all but the first inning. He allowed three hits and walked none.
Glasnow was efficient, needing just 88 pitches to get through his seven innings. He became the first pitcher since 1988 to strike out at least 14 batters on 88 pitches or less.
“I always just want to try to execute early and throw strikes early, and I think tonight I was just able to do that,” Glasnow said. “I got ahead of guys and wasn’t falling behind and walking guys, so I think my pitch count was able to stay (low).”
Glasnow became the seventh pitcher in Dodgers history with at least 14 strikeouts and no walks in a game.
“I don’t know if there’s a better pitcher in baseball when he’s in good form,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said.
“He was especially difficult today. I don’t think he can throw the ball much better than that.”
Minnesota fell to 0-4 at home this season. The Twins have scored just five runs in those four games.
Ryan Jeffers, Carlos Correa and Alex Kirilloff homered for Minnesota after Glasnow departed. Jeffers took Alex Vesia deep in the eighth, and Correa and Kirilloff connected in the ninth against Connor Brogdon in his first appearance with the Dodgers since he was traded from Philadelphia.
Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani went 1 for 5, snapping his multihit streak at five games.
Twins left fielder Austin Martin collected his first major league hit in the third, looping a double to right-center off the glove of Outman. Martin also doubled in the sixth off Glasnow.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Twins: OF Max Kepler was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right knee contusion. Kepler is 1 for 20 with a walk through five games this season. Newly acquired reliever Michael Tonkin took Kepler’s place on the 26-man roster.
UP NEXT
Dodgers right-hander Bobby Miller (1-1, 5.87 ERA) takes the mound in Wednesday’s series finale, while right-hander Chris Paddack (0-0, 4.50) gets the start for Minnesota. Miller gave up five runs in just 1 2/3 innings in his last start against the Cubs. Paddack earned a no-decision in his only start of the year against the Brewers.

Minnesota Medicaid crisis: Thousands of care providers cut off from funding after state revalidation deadline
MN Medicaid deadline: Providers see funding cutoff
A rushed Medicaid review has left thousands of Minnesota care providers suddenly without funding, putting essential services, vulnerable patients, and jobs at risk. The sudden Medicaid cutoff comes after the federal government withheld $2 billion over fraud concerns, forcing the state to evaluate about 5,500 providers in high-risk programs in just five months.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) – A rushed Medicaid review has left thousands of Minnesota care providers suddenly without funding, putting services and jobs at risk.
Providers face sudden Medicaid cutoff after federal pressure
What we know:
The deadline for Medicaid providers to complete the state’s revalidation process was midnight Sunday. Many, like Susan Holman of Legacy Place Assisted Living in Sauk Rapids, found themselves disenrolled without clear explanation. Holman said, “I’m disenrolled now. I’m disenrolled as of today.”
Holman and her husband have run their assisted living business for 14 years. She submitted all required documents on May 1, but by June 1, her application was still pending review. She then received notice that her Medicaid funding was terminated. “I don’t know if they meant to do all of this to everybody. I don’t know. But I know I’m not alone in this,” said Holman.
The review was triggered when the federal government withheld $2 billion in Medicaid funding to Minnesota over fraud concerns. The state was forced to quickly check about 5,500 providers in 13 high-risk programs in just five months—a process that usually takes most states two years. As of last Wednesday, only about 1,000 providers had passed.
The impact on home care services
Why you should care:
Home care providers in northern Minnesota and along the North Shore are also facing funding cuts. Meghann Lewis and Codi Warnecke, who run Bella Mente Home Care and Heart & Hara Home Care, say the process has been confusing and communication has been lacking. “It’s just been really disorganized that there’s no up or down and there’s no one to talk to,” said Lewis.
Lewis received a letter confirming her revalidation, only to get another letter an hour later suspending her funding. “An hour later I had another private letter in the same mailbox that says we’re suspending your CFSS due to failed revalidation,” said Lewis. Warnecke said, “For the last two weeks, the payroll has come out of my personal pocket.”
Both are appealing the rejections and considering lawsuits against the state. Holman is also planning an appeal, but with as many as 5,000 businesses in the same situation, she doubts the state will resolve things quickly. Some businesses may not survive, which could put vulnerable people at risk of losing essential care.
Many providers are left frustrated and uncertain about their future. “This doesn’t make any sense to me. I’m so frustrated,” said Holman.
MN Medicaid providers revalidation limbo
A deadline for Minnesota Medicaid service providers to revalidate their services for federal funding has now come and gone. FOX 9’s Corin Hoggard explains what it could mean for some.
The state’s response and what happens next
The other side:
FOX 9’s Corin Hoggard tried to get answers from the Minnesota Department of Human Services, but the agency declined interviews and did not provide updated data about the review process.
Providers are left in limbo as they wait for appeals to be processed and hope for funding to be restored. In the meantime, they are doing what they can to keep services going for those who depend on them.
What we don’t know:
It is unclear how many providers will ultimately regain Medicaid funding or how quickly the state will resolve the appeals. The Minnesota Department of Human Services has not shared updated numbers or details about the next steps.
