Twins Win at Detroit, 6-4
|
The Minnesota Twins topped the Detroit Tigers, 6-4, in American League action at Comerica Park. The standout performance belonged to Minnesota pitcher and Arlington, Virginia, native Nathan Kirby. Kirby went 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 1, and struck out 7. His record improves to 11-5. Jimmy Bannatyne closed the door for Minnesota, picking up his 33rd save of the year.
Minnesota relied on the hitting of Brendan Rodgers to pick up the win. The second baseman clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Twins on top, 4-1. For the game, Rodgers had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"We've got a great group of guys," Rodgers said, "and we're having fun right now."
Minnesota is now 71-45, 13 games up in the American League Central.
