Twins Face the Padres Leading Series 1-0

Byron Buxton recorded his first stolen base of third base in over nine years, contributing to the Twins' third consecutive game scoring at least seven runs, manager Rocco Baldelli said.

  • On Friday night, the Minnesota Twins defeated the San Diego Padres 7-4 in Minneapolis, wearing down Padres pitching over a three-hour, one-minute game.
  • Opening their homestand against San Diego, the Minnesota Twins won the opener of a seven-game homestand and lead 1-0 in the three-game series.
  • Royce Lewis supplied a pivotal two-out homer 405 feet over the wall for his ninth of the season, and two pitches later Trevor Larnach ripped a two-run single to center.
  • The Twins bullpen preserved the late lead as Kody Funderburk earned his second career save in the ninth inning and Zebby Matthews completed a six-inning start, snapping a three-start winless streak.
  • Byron Buxton produced a rare steal of third, his first attempt in more than nine years and 113th career stolen base, as the Minnesota offense scored seven runs in three consecutive games.
