(Minneapolis, MN) -- The Twins are on a four-game winning streak after walking off the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-3 at Target Field.
The D-Backs took a one-run lead in the top of the ninth when Christian Walker hit a solo home run, but Max Kepler went deep to tie the game on Paul Sewald's first pitch of the next half-inning. Matt Wallner crushed a two-run walk-off shot two batters later.
