Twins Win, 4-1, Versus Cubs
|
The Twins grabbed a win, 4-1, at Wrigley Field, overcoming a fine effort from Chicago pitcher Caleb Kilian. Kilian went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Jhoan Duran recorded his 29th save for Minnesota. Minnesota now has a record of 64-50 with the win.
Minnesota used a clutch hit from Jorge Polanco to get the win. The designated hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Twins ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.
"We're one win closer to our goal," Polanco said in postgame remarks.
