Minnesota Twins Hit for a Season-High 14 Runs in Victory Over Orioles

The Minnesota Twins began their 3-game road series against the Baltimore Orioles on Monday. With Kyle Gibson on the hill, winless before the game, things didn’t look too promising for the Twinkies in Game 1.

It started off the way that many Twins’ fans feared it would. After a scoreless first inning, the Orioles got 5 runs in the second inning. It started with a Trey Mancini RBI double followed up by a JJ Hardy RBI single, and ended with a 3-run home-run by Adam Jones. Quickly, the Twins were down 5-0.
