MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Brian Dozier led off the game for the Minnesota Twins on Friday night with a home run. Gerardo Parra of the Milwaukee Brewers matched that feat when he led off the bottom of the first inning.

Dozier lined a 2-1 pitch from Kyle Lohse into the seats in left. Then, in the bottom half of the first, Parra hit an 0-1 offering from Trevor May just over the wall in left-center field. Center fielder Shane Robinson made a leaping attempt at the wall, but the ball cleared his glove with room to spare.
