Does "had one hiccup" mean "made one minor mistake"? Yes. CJ

Context:

BOSTON -- They named a milkshake after St. Louis Cardinals rookie sensation Michael Wacha.
Now, the good folks of St. Louis may have to name the Gateway Arch after him.
Wacha, putting on the greatest rookie pitching performance in postseason history, had one hiccup, but still continued his October domination, making the Boston Red Sox his latest victims.

The header is: Cardinals turn tide in must-win game, even Series

Can hiccup mean "turning the tide"? Looks highly unlikely...
