Based on the post, 12 of the calls went against the Twins, and assistant hitting coach Derek Shomon was ejected in the top of the fifth inning after a called strike to Carlos Correa. Based on Umpire Scorecards' methodology, the Twins now sit 25th in the MLB this season in terms of total favorability.

Minnesota is currently amidst a four-game losing streak, but they will look to get back into the winning column Saturday afternoon when they take on the Pirates at 3 p.m. CT. Clemons is expected to be the third base umpire, while Carlos Torres will act behind the plate.
