6/18/24 Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff is injured after all, says he'll be more open in the future. The Minnesota Twins will place outfielder Alex Kirilloff on the injured list after all with back trouble, six days after the struggling former top prospect was sent down to Triple-A. A contrite Kirilloff rejoined the Twins at Target Field on Tuesday for treatment, having acknowledged he understated the severity of his injury because he wanted to keep playing. Kirilloff had an MRI exam on May 26, the results of which did not suggest he'd need to be sidelined, but after the 2016 first-round draft pick was demoted he reported more significant soreness and pain in his lower back along with nerve-related discomfort running down his leg. "It's kind of hard to say something when you want to be out there every day, but at the same time, things need to be communicated at a high level here, especially when we're all trying to compete to win a championship," Kirilloff said.

6/14/24 In midst of a massive slump, Twins send Kirilloff to the minors. Whenever Alex Kirilloff slumped in past seasons, it was usually a sign he was battling an injury. He's healthy this year, by all accounts, and the Twins demoted him to Class AAA St. Paul following Wednesday's game. Kirilloff joins Edouard Julien and Matt Wallner in AAA after the three young lefty hitters struggled this season. Since May 3, Kirilloff was batting .135 with three homers, two ...

6/08/24 Pride of Plum finally plays first game at PNC Park. PITTSBURGH – Alex Kirilloff remembers standing on the third level of the PNC Park Rotunda, next to the left-field foul pole, with a friend during the 2013 National League wild card game. It became known as the Johnny Cueto game when the then-Cincinnati Reds pitcher dropped the ball on the mound after a raucous crowd started chanting his name. On the next pitch, Russell Martin hit a solo homer ...

5/26/24 Streaking Twins, slumping Rangers heading in opposite directions. The Minnesota Twins haven't lost since holding a closed-door meeting last week. After the Twins lost their seventh straight game last Monday, 12-3 at the Washington Nationals, the players called a closed-door meeting in an effort to get to the bottom of their failures. Minnesota went out the next day and clobbered Washington 10-0 before winning its next two games by matching 3-2 scores, including the series opener against the Rangers on Friday. The Twins then trailed 3-2 with six outs to go on Saturday before Alex Kirilloff hit a three-run homer in the bottom of the eighth to lead them to a 5-3 win.

5/25/24 Kirilloff homers and Twins get strong relief pitching to edge the skidding Rangers 3-2. MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alex Kirilloff hit a go-ahead home run in the fourth inning and Minnesota retired 15 of the last 16 hitters as the Twins edged the slumping Texas Rangers 3-2 on Friday night. Carlos Correa, Christian Vázquez and Jose Miranda each had two hits for the Twins, who won their third straight since snapping a seven-game losing streak. Corey Seager hit a two-run homer in the first, but the Rangers were blanked the rest of the way. Texas has lost 11 of its last 13 and has failed to score more than four runs in a game during the skid. “You're not going to win a game unless you get a hit with men on base,” Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said. “You can't just rely on the longball and we didn't

5/01/24 Twins rally past White Sox for 10th straight victory. Yes, the Twins have taken advantage of a soft spot in their schedule — seven of those games came against the White Sox, a team that has won a major league-worst six games, and the other three came against the lowly Angels in Anaheim. It's taken contributions from everyone — and maybe some help from a lucky summer sausage that was tossed to Alex Kirilloff after his fifth-inning home run. The Twins trailed for much of the day after Bailey Ober gave up a pair of runs in the first inning.

4/24/24 Buxton, Kirilloff help Twins rally past White Sox 6-5. MLB-worst Chicago falls to 3-20. MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Alex Kirilloff hit a two-out, game-ending single after Byron Buxton led off the ninth inning with a tying homer, and the major league-worst Chicago White Sox fell to 3-20 with a 6-5 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night (April 23, 2024). Chicago joined Cincinnati in 2022, Detroit in 2003, the St. Louis Browns in 1936 and the Cleveland Spiders in 1899 as teams to start 3-20. The 1988 Baltimore Orioles began 1-22. “We've got to win games, man,” White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said. “Bottom line.” Trevor Larnach hit a 433-foot, two-run homer in the eighth to get the Twins within 5-4 and help set up the heroics by Buxton and Kirilloff against Steven Wilson (1-2).

4/06/24 Plenty of baserunners, little production as Twins fall to Guardians. The Twins were held to only two hits on Saturday. But it wasn't exactly a masterpiece by Guardians pitchers. No, the Twins inflicted this 3-1 loss at Target Field on themselves. Twins hitters drew seven walks, were hit by three pitches and received their now-daily triple from Alex Kirilloff. But all those opportunities were undone by their complete inability to drive runners home, while at ...

4/04/24 Strikeouts pile up in Twins' home-opening loss to Guardians. An announced crowd of 35,595 fans huddled into Target Field on Thursday afternoon to greet the new season. The Twins' offense, which delivered a late spark a day earlier, was unable to capitalize on its many opportunities Thursday, striking out 15 times in a 4-2 loss to the Cleveland Guardians in Minnesota's home opener. The Twins' issues with runners in scoring position started in the first inning when the red-hot Alex Kirilloff hit a one-out triple — his second in as many days — and was stranded on third.
