Twins Win, 5-1, Over Texas
Minnesota starter Bailey Ober had a strong outing against the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 5-1 win. In 6.1 innings, Ober surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 0. He allowed 1 run. Minnesota has 3 straight wins, Texas 3 straight losses.

Minnesota took a 5-1 lead on Nick Gordon's 4th triple of the season. The 2-run triple, which Gordon hit in the top of the eighth, left Texas pitcher Jose Leclerc visibly frustrated.

Ober attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
