The Twins edged the Cardinals 5-4 at Target Field on Sunday, rallying late behind a 13-hit afternoon and locking it down with the bullpen. Taj Bradley gave Minnesota 6.2 innings with 7 strikeouts, Andrew Morris punched out 3 in a scoreless eighth, and Yoendrys Gomez finished a clean ninth. St. Louis got a solid 6.0-inning, 2-ER outing from Michael McGreevy, but Minnesota broke through for 2 runs in the seventh and the go-ahead run in the eighth to flip the game. A tight one that turned on late execution and bullpen command. #MLB#Twins#MNTwins#Cardinals#STLCards#TargetField#Baseball
The Cardinals defeated the Twins 9-6 at Target Field on Saturday, breaking open a tie game with a five-run seventh inning. St. Louis finished with 13 hits after jumping ahead 4-0 early, then answered Minnesota’s comeback with its biggest rally of the day. Matt Svanson played a key role out of the bullpen with 1.2 scoreless innings, and Connor Prielipp’s steady middle frames for Minnesota were undone when the Cardinals got to the bullpen late. A tight game turned on one inning, and St. Louis made it count. #MLB#Cardinals#STLCards#Twins#MNTwins#Baseball#TargetField
The Twins edged the Cardinals 9-8 at Target Field on Friday night in one of the wilder late-game turnarounds you'll see. Minnesota trailed 7-4 after St. Louis scored four in the seventh, answered with three in the bottom half, then fell behind again before pushing across two in the eighth to take the lead for good. Joe Ryan gave the Twins 6.0 innings, 6 hits, 3 ER, and 8 strikeouts, while Andrew Morris closed it out with a clean ninth. St. Louis finished with 12 hits, but Minnesota made its 11 count in the biggest moments. Back-and-forth baseball all night in Minneapolis. #MLB#Twins#MNTwins#Cardinals#STLCards#TargetField#Baseball

#TargetField was also a top priority during the twins’ trip to #Minneapolis, as it was another #stadium scratched off the #bucketlist. It is a modern stadium, but really doesn’t have amenities that make it stand out. They ranked it mid-pack amongst the stadiums they’ve visited.
