Getting an impressive start from Nick Pivetta, Minnesota beat Philadelphia by the score of 5-1. The Twins, with just their 2nd win so far in 2019, have yet to catch fire.

Minnesota relied on the hitting of Whit Merrifield to pick up the win. The second baseman clubbed a solo home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Twins on top, 2-1. For the game, Merrifield had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Pivetta told the Minnesota Daily News.
