In what looked at the outset like it would be a pitcher’s duel decidedly in favor of the Twins, the Astros got an early jump on Twins starter Joe Ryan. In the end, the only pitcher left standing was the Astros’ humble Brandon Bielak.
Alex Bregman got it started with a solo homer to the Crawford Boxes in the second inning, followed soon after with a two-run Chas McCormick homer that brought the lead to 3-0.
