Minnesota Loss Spoils Terrific Game by Rutschman
Minnesota catcher Adley Rutschman had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Rutschman hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice, even as Houston beat the Twins, 7-4. Minnesota has now lost 5 straight.

Harold Ramirez aided the Houston cause with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the right fielder went 1-4.

"We're not really clicking on anything right now," said Minnesota manager Joern Damkroeger.
