A missed call with Mookie Betts at the plate in the ninth inning played a role in the Twins' heartbreaking walkoff loss against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Shohei Ohtani matched a franchise record with a homer in the fifth straight game and Freddie Freeman drove in two runs with a two-out single in the ninth inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 4-3.

But the Twins didn’t get the call, dropping a game that had been a pitchers’ duel between starters Chris Paddack and Tyler Glasnow, who each allowed a solo home run — Paddack to Ohtani and Glasnow to Royce Lewis — but nothing else in their efforts.

Diego Cartaya was once the crown jewel of the Dodgers' farm system, but the Twins cut bait with the catcher following his struggles with the St. Paul Saints.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher David Festa has been placed on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation.

Jeff Passan of ESPN is reporting that the Minnesota Twins are looking for multiple top-100 prospects if teams want either Griffin Jax or Jhoan Duran.

Regardless of the Twins' eventual status as buyers or sellers, Minnesota may have a more muted trade deadline than usual. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported that while the Twins may be willing to discuss trading pitchers Joe Ryan, Jhoan Duran and/or Griffin Jax, a potential sale could lead to a relatively quiet trade deadline.

Speaking of home run swings, Royce Lewis hit another home run today, and he might officially be on a heater, as that's his third home run in four games. But also, speaking of Royce Lewis... he'd likely fetch the best return of anybody on the Twins not named Byron Buxton right now.

The Los Angeles Dodgers bullpen has been a mess this year, in large part due to injuries. They could swing a trade to reload their bullpen for the final stretch of the season.
