Twins Earn Win with Late Rally
The Minnesota Twins and Atlanta Braves played an entertaining game for Target Field patrons.

The Minnesota Twins, despite a fine performance by Atlanta pitcher Tyler Mahle, grabbed a 3-2 win at Target Field. Mahle allowed 2 runs over 6 innings. The winner was Justin Miller in relief. His record improves to 3-0. Robert Garcia took the loss.

Minnesota got a knockout punch from Kyle Garlick. The right fielder hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"The crowd was raucous," said Garlick.

Minnesota has now won 5 straight, while the Braves have lost 6 in a row.
