Twins Make It 4 Straight with 8-4 Win
Minnesota picked up a win at Rogers Centre, toppling the Toronto Blue Jays, 8-4. Pitcher Mike Browning was one of the reasons the Twins triumphed. The last-place Blue Jays have dropped 4 straight games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Brad Putney? The Minnesota left fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the second inning to put the Twins on top, 4-1. For the game, Putney had 2 doubles and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Minnesota skipper Joshua Hester.
