Minnesota Slaps 7-4 Loss on Royals
Bret McBride left his imprint on the 7-4 Minnesota win against the Kansas City Royals. McBride, who finished 5th in the AL in home runs with 34 last year, was 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Minnesota reliever Ryan Wolfe was credited with the win. His record goes to 1-1. Dallas Roden took the loss for Kansas City. Minnesota is now 75-82, while Kansas City is 97-60.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Billy Hinson? The Minnesota center fielder had a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put the Twins on top, 3-2. For the game, Hinson had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Kansas City manager Connor Gould.
