The Yankees struck first but it didn’t ultimately matter, their slip-ups proving too costly for their quiet offense to overcome.
MINNEAPOLIS — The way their offense has been going lately, the Yankees can ill afford many mistake pitches or fielding miscues.
The score Tuesday night was tied 2-2 heading into the sixth inning, when the Twins jumped on top for good against Nestor Cortes and Ron Marinaccio.Left fielder Aaron Hicks made a long run to give himself a chance for a catch, but still couldn’t come up with it, just in front of the wall. Ryan went on to mostly cruise across seven strong innings while striking out seven and walking none. Yankees catcher Jose Trevino, left, and starting pitcher Nestor Cortes talk on the mound during the sixth inning.A night after Aaron Judge said the Yankees’ lineup had to be more aggressive early in games, he followed through and it paid off.
But Anthony Volpe’s third error in as many games opened the door for the Twins to take the lead in the third inning.Volpe reached down for it, but missed. The Twins returned the favor, though, in the fifth inning. Hicks led off with a hard one-hopper that ate up Solano at first base.
