GAME RECAP
Impact player game 1
Oswaldo Arcia, Twins
Picked a great time to howitzer his first career home run onto the right-field plaza, a fourth-inning blast that scored three and put the Twins ahead for good.
IMPACT PLAYER GAME 2
Rob Brantly, Marlins
Miami's catcher entered Tuesday with just three RBI but added four more, including two on a first-inning double that built the Marlins' three-run lead.
BY THE NUMBERS
1 Three-run homers by the Twins this year, after Arcia's blast. They had 15 last year.
4 Consecutive starts of seven innings or more to open the season for Kevin Correia, the first Twin to do so since Ramon Ortiz in 2007.
8 Come-from-behind victories by the Twins, of their nine wins this year.
ON DECK
After another off day, the Twins open a four-game home series — in much-improved weather — against the Texas Rangers.
