Red Sox Lose to Twins, 4-1
Nick Pivetta never let the Red Sox get in a groove. The right-hander used his bread and butter, his fastball, to pitch the Twins to a win, 4-1. Nick Anderson earned the save for Minnesota, his 2nd of the year. The Red Sox fall to 11-17 and continue their uninspiring start to the 2020 season.

The Twins got a big at-bat from designated hitter Derek Dietrich. For the game, Dietrich went 1 for 3 with a home run. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 2nd home run of the season gave Minnesota a 2-1 lead.

"Nothing fazes Nick," said Minnesota manager Al Wehr.
