ミネソタ・ツインズは火曜夜、シティ・フィールドでニューヨーク・メッツに5-3で逆転勝利し、連敗を4で止めた。メッツのルーキー、ノーラン・マクリーンが5回までパーフェクトピッチングを見せたが、ツインズが6回に反撃に出た。メッツはこの敗戦で球団史上ワーストに並ぶ12連敗を喫した。
ノーラン・マクリーンは序盤、対戦した最初の15人の打者を完璧に抑え、最初の9人のうち7人から三振を奪う圧巻の投球を見せた。このルーキーはシーズン最多となる10奪三振を記録し、防御率は2.67となったが、6回にマット・ウォルナーが先頭打者としてヒットで出塁し、続くバイロン・バクストンが2ランホームランを放ち、メッツの3-0のリードを3-2に縮めた。マクリーンが6回までパーフェクトゲームを続けたのは今季2度目で、前回は4月3日のサンフランシスコ戦だった。今季の対戦打者は、マクリーンに対して最初の5回までで打率わずか.075に抑えられている。
X上では、ノーラン・マクリーンの5回パーフェクト投球があったにもかかわらず3-0のリードを守りきれず、メッツが12連敗を喫したことについて議論が交わされている。ツインズのファンは、ルーク・キーシャルらの活躍を含む終盤の反撃を称賛し、4連敗を止めたことを喜んでいる。一方、メッツのファンや記者は、ブルペン陣の崩壊やチーム全体の低調なパフォーマンスに対して不満を露わにしている。

New York had a 3-0 lead with Nolan McLean perfect through five tonight.
Then the Twins tied it, the Mets’ offense vanished against a weak Minnesota bullpen and Devin Williams imploded in the ninth.
What else is there to say at this…
The Twins’ struggling bullpen retired all 12 Mets batters they faced
