Franco Helps Minnesota Cruise to 10-3 Win
|
Behind a solid performance from third baseman Maikel Franco, the Minnesota Twins defeated the Detroit Tigers, 10-3. Franco was 3 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3 for the Twins. Jameson Taillon was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 9 hits, with no walks and 5 strikeouts. Juan Nicasio was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 6 save opportunities.
Chris Iannetta hit a 2-run triple off Jharel Cotton in the top of the fourth, which put the Twins in front, 2-0. In addition to the triple, Iannetta had 1 single and 1 walk, while going 2 for 4.
"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Detroit manager Eric Dolegowski. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
The Tigers, now 55-61, have lost 7 in a row.
