EXTRAS

STAT OF THE DAY

7 Miguel Andujar’s secondinning home run extended his extra-base hit streak to seven games. That ties Mickey Mantle (1955) and Joe DiMaggio (1937) for the longest such streak by a Yankee younger than 24 years old, per researcher Katie Sharp (@ ktsharp.) Andujar went 2-for-4 and added a double.

UNSUNG HERO

Tyler Austin went 2-for-5 with a career-high four RBI, hitting a two-run homer in the eighth after ripping a two-run double in the seventh.

M.I.A.

The first four Twins pitchers all gave up at least one run before things got so bad that center fielder Ryan LaMarre took the mound with one out in the eighth and Minnesota down 11 runs.
