GAME ID: 1449 - SATURDAY, JUNE 1ST , 2024 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota Twins (20-39) 0 0 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 7 9 2
Houston Astros (30-29) 0 3 1 0 0 0 7 0 X 11 16 0
Twins Lose, 11-7, at Minute Maid Park
Houston shortstop Paul DeJong had 4 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Minnesota Twins, 11-7. Minnesota's current losing streak has reached 4 games.

Had Jorge Polanco not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Polanco hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 8-7, in favor of the Astros.

"It's nice to see a lot of guys make contributions," said Astros manager Mark Nestor.
