GAME RECAP

IMPACT PLAYER

Max Kepler, Twins

Turned the Twins' one-run lead into a four-run cushion by blasting a three-run home run 15 rows deep in right field.

BY THE NUMBERS

5 Walks allowed by Tigers starter Jordan Zimmermann, a career high.

3 Walks taken by Miguel Sano, tying his career high.

33 Games since the Twins scored more than 10 runs, dating back to Sept. 4.

ON DECK

Adalberto Mejia has never pitched in Target Field; Dylan Covey has never pitched in the majors. If the rain stays away, they'll face each other Friday.
