Game Summary
Minnesota Twins defeated the Atlanta Braves 6-4. The Twins won thanks to a timely five-run spike across the 3rd, 5th and 7th innings highlighted by a three-run bottom of the fifth that turned a 1-1 game into a 4-1 lead. Kody Clemens delivered a big night (2-for-4, double, 3 RBI) while Kaelen Culpepper (3-for-4, run) and Luke Keaschall (2-for-5, run) provided key contact. Taj Bradley turned in a strong start, working five innings with two hits, one earned run and seven strikeouts, and Minnesota’s bullpen preserved the edge with scoreless relief (Jeff Hoffman fanning three in an inning). Victor Mederos was charged with the loss.
