Bruce Impresses in Minnesota Loss
Minnesota designated hitter Jay Bruce was sensational. He was 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3, but it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Atlanta beat the Twins, 10-9. Bruce was named the player of the game despite the loss. Daniel Hudson, credited with the save, is now 1 for 1 in save opportunities. The 'W' lifts Atlanta's record to 51-66.

Luis Alexander Basabe aided the Atlanta cause with a run-scoring double in the top of the third. For the game, the center fielder went 1-5 with a double.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Atlanta skipper Tyler Rumpel.
