Twins Roll to 9-3 Win Over Royals
The home crowd had a good time watching the Kansas City Royals and Minnesota Twins get after it.

No one was more impactful than Mike Yastrzemski in the 9-3 Minnesota win over Kansas City. Yastrzemski, who finished 3rd in the AL in triples with 8 in 2022, was 1 for 2 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Minnesota reliever Alex Speas picked up the win, upping his record to 3-0. Lance McCullers absorbed the loss.

With Minnesota leading 2-1 in the bottom of the third, Yastrzemski hit a slider from Lance McCullers for a 2-run home run. It was his 6th home run of the season and put the Twins ahead, 4-1.

"I really like what we did out there today," Yastrzemski said after the game.

The 4th-place Twins go to 24-30.
