Getting offensive support from Eddie Salazar, the Minnesota Twins topped the Kansas City Royals, 9-8. Salazar was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times and driving in 4 for the Twins. Kiryl Voropaev claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. His record stands at 3-6. Getting the save was Brady House, his 33rd.

With runners on 1st and 3rd and one out in the bottom of the seventh inning, right fielder Luis Paredes delivered big for the Twins. Minnesota was trailing 7-4 when he belted a 3-run home run.

"We got the victory," said Salazar. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."

The Royals, at 75-83, have lost 5 in a row.
