Instead, Willi Castro homered in his second straight at-bat to pull Minnesota within a run. Byron Buxton then singled, stole second, and scored on Trevor Larnach's game-tying RBI knock. Just like that,

Ryan Jeffers hit a solo shot in the first inning and an RBI single in the ninth, Harrison Bader added a two-run homer and Minnesota Twins extended the Athletics’s losing streak to nine games with a 6-1 win .

On the day the Giants cut ties with LaMonte Wade, there was perhaps no more fitting tribute to him than grinding out a win.

As recently as three weeks ago, it would have been hard to imagine the Twins mustering a comeback win like the one they managed Saturday. These days, it’s almost harder to imagine they won’t find a way to win.

In dominant fashion, the Minnesota Twins handed the Athletics their 7th straight loss and capitalized on their mountain of mistakes.

Willi Castro hit a pair of homers and the Minnesota Twins scored four runs in both the sixth and seventh innings to hand the Athletics their eighth straight loss and 19th in their last 20 games, 10-3.

The Twins received a major spark on Friday after Byron Buxton’s return to the active lineup against the Mariners.

Brooks Lee gave Minnesota its second walk-off win in as many days as his ninth-inning RBI single lifted the Twins to a comeback victory over Kansas City in Minneapolis.
