Watch the Star Tribune Game of the Week

The seeds for Wednesday's disappointing loss were planted much earlier. How far back you want to go probably depends on who you want to blame for a sputtering season.

The Star Tribune's David La Vaque and Jim Paulsen have both missed only twice in a dozen tries at predicting high school football winners this season.

On Thursday's Daily Delivery podcast, host Michael Rand opened with a frustrating Twins loss to Cleveland that had fans particularly upset. Plus he welcomed in Minnesota Star Tribune columnist La Velle E. Neal III for their debate segment.

After Wednesday's 2-1 loss, the Loons have a losing record at Allianz Field (5-6-4). Since June 8, they have one win, one draw and five losses in St. Paul.

Carlos Correa's two-run single in the 10th gave the Twins a two-run lead, but host Cleveland rallied for three runs off Ronny Henriquez to prevail 5-4 and send Minnesota to a crushing loss.
