Twins Bang Out 6-3 Win Versus Oakland
The 2020 season began for the Oakland Athletics with a loss to the Minnesota Twins at Oakland Coliseum. The final score was 6-3. Minnesota pitcher Jose Berrios had a fine performance. Berrios picked up the win for Minnesota, going 7 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 1-0.

It could have been a different outcome for Minnesota, had it not been for Jake Cave, the 27-year old center fielder . Cave contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put Minnesota up, 6-2.

Berrios called the win "a collective effort."
