Wilson homer backs Berrios in Twins 4-1 win over Cardinals

MINNEAPOLIS -- Bobby Wilson hit his first home run in more than a year, Jose Berrios bounced back with strong effort on the mound, and the Minnesota Twins beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-1 on Tuesday night.

Wilson, a journeyman catcher for six different teams in nine major league seasons, hit a slider from St. Louis reliever Luke Gregerson into the left field stands for a two-run homer to cap a three-run seventh inning. It was Wilson's first major league home run since Sept. 21, 2016 for the Tampa Bay Rays.
