Tigers Stumble, Lose to Twins
Minnesota picked up a win at Target Field, bumping off the Detroit Tigers, 10-4. Pitcher Robbie Ray was a major reason the Twins emerged victorious. With the win, Minnesota raised its record to 85-71.

The Twins got an important contribution from left fielder Alex Kirilloff, who in the bottom of the second stroked a 0-1 fastball into left-center for a run-scoring double. It was his 6th double of the season and put the Twins ahead, 1-0.

Ray called the triumph "a good team win."
