GAME RECAP

IMPACT PLAYER

Nelson Cruz, Twins

The designated hitter swatted two home runs for the 29th multi-homer game of his career.

BY THE NUMBERS

16 Home runs hit by the Twins in four games vs. the Orioles. That equals the most they've hit against a non-AL Central foe in one season since the league split into three divisions in 1998. And still two games to play.

ON DECK

Orioles righthander Dan Straily, who gave up three runs in five innings against the Twins on April 20, faces righthander Jose Berrios, who gave up four earned runs in that same game.
