#TWINS SCORE TODAY SERIES#
Wednesday's finale of the abbreviated two-game series is set to begin at 12:10 p.m. Minimal rest awaits the Brewers, who were swift in their movements postgame to leave the stadium and get back to the hotel. "We were all happy with it sitting there watching it and I thought the ball was coming out good. "We commented after the first hitter that it looked really good," Counsell said of Hader. 348 and with a league-best swinging strike rate. Included in that inning were a pair of swinging strikes to Twins leadoff hitter Luis Arraez, a contact maven who came into the day batting. Hader picked up his league-best 27th save by striking out the side in the ninth.
The bullpen combination of Gustave, Hoby Milner, Brad Boxberger, Devin Williams and Josh Hader combined for five innings of one-run ball after Alexander went four and allowed two runs. "We just gotta do stuff to keep it light and keep having fun, stay locked in obviously, but we came in here and hung out in the locker room, played some music, played some cards and stayed ready."
"You never want to have rain delays but it's part of the game," Peterson said. When the teams returned - with a loud contingent of Brewers supporters remaining in the stadium - Peterson laced a long two-out single off the base of the right field wall to score McCutchen in the sixth. I thought 'Gus' getting through his inning clean without having to get anybody up was important because we had a pretty good rain delay after that." "When (Alexander) was getting out of the fourth, there was weather coming in again and so we were trying to manage who’s getting up with weather coming and how often you’re gonna get guys up.

The third and final delay, called prior to the start of the sixth, lasted one hour, six minutes, characterized by ominous-looking clouds and thunderstorms that brought sideways rain. With two outs, Willy Adames launched a moonshot to left for a two-run homer that increased the Brewers’ lead to 5-2. Jonathan Davis drove in Peterson with a one-out single up the middle for his second RBI with Milwaukee. "A rain delay that short, I've never seen anything like it," Brewers utility man Jace Peterson said.įacing a short window before the next storms were set to roll in, the Brewers cashed in with a pivotal three-run fifth. Following Gordon’s hit, the umpires called for the grounds crew to pull the tarp but they never unfurled it and, within eight minutes, the rain ceased and the game resumed. The Twins tied things up with a two-out rally capped by a Nick Gordon RBI single to bring home Polanco in the fourth. Two batters later, the game entered its first delay which lasted 29 minutes. Jorge Polanco got one run back for the Twins by lofting a 3-1 sinker from Milwaukee starter Jason Alexander for a solo homer to lead off the second. McCutchen opened the scoring with two outs in the first by reaching the overhang porch in right off Twins starting pitcher Dylan Winder to put the Brewers up, 2-0.
