Twins 7, Blue Jays 3: Rain goes away, comes again another day
Photo by David Berding/ The Twins take the season series from one of the toughest teams in the American League. It took more hard work from the deadline acquisitions, more top-gear performances from the youngsters on the squad, and a bit more injury than anyone would have liked to see, but Minnesota pulled away with a 7-3 victory here on Saturday night. The Twins began their damage in the third; after putting together a first-inning threat to no avail, a Sandy Leon leadoff walk and subsequent Luis Arraez double doled out the dishware, and set the table for RBIs from...

Padres 3, Twins 2: Suboptimal
Orlando Ramirez-USA TODAY Sports The Twins are unable to hold a 2-1 lead and drop the series finale to San Diego. The Twins weren’t able to take the series today in San Diego, due to a 3-2 loss in a low scoring but back and forth affair. The Padres took the Iead first, on a Jurickson Profar solo homer to right field in the third inning. The ball only traveled 340 feet, but it still (barely) got out of the field of play to make it 1-0 San Diego.

Photo by Scott W. Grau/Icon Sportswire via The Twins compile a hard-earned team win in their first game back out of the break. The Twins got it rolling again early, scoring in the first and never relinquishing the lead, as they knocked off the Detroit Tigers by a 8-4 final to initiate their second half. All-Star first baseman Luis Arraez picked up right where he left off, leading off the ballgame with a single into right.
