Twins fall to Brewers in extras

(Milwaukee, WI) -- The Twins were swept by the Milwaukee Brewers with an 8-7, ten-inning loss at American Family Field yesterday.

Royce Lewis, Michael Taylor, and Kyle Farmer all went deep to give Minnesota a 6-3 lead, but Milwaukee tied the game in the seventh to send it to extras. The Twins scored a run on the top of the tenth, but Jhoan Duran gave up a walk-off infield single to end the game. Duran was charged with his sixth loss in relief.

Minnesota has a four-and-a-half game lead over Cleveland in the AL Central at 65-62. Pablo Lopez starts for Minnesota against Texas tonight.
