Jose Quintana pitches 6 crisp innings as the Brewers beat the struggling Twins 9-0
Jose Quintana pitched six innings of three-hit ball, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Minnesota Twins 9-0 on Saturday. Isaac Collins had two hits and three RBIs for Milwaukee in its third consecutive win. Brice Turang had two hits and scored two runs. The Brewers improved to 6-2 in their last eight games and moved a season-high seven games over .500 at 42-35. The Twins had four hits in their eighth loss in nine games. They lost 17-6 in the series opener on Friday. The game was played under an excessive heat warning. The feels-like temperature reached 105 degrees with little breeze. Quintana (5-2) struck out four and walked one. Grant Anderson pitched an inning before Aaron Ashby finished the shutout for the Brewers. Twins right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson (2-4) allowed four runs, three earned, and four hits in six innings. Milwaukee scored two runs in each of the first two innings. Turang hit a sacrifice fly in the first, and Christian Yelich's RBI single made it 4-0 in the second. Harrison Bader misplayed a flyball that allowed Turang to score the first of three Milwaukee runs in the eighth. Caleb Durbin beat a throw to second base that could have potentially started a double play in the second inning. Instead, Milwaukee had the bases loaded with nobody out. Minnesota's Brooks Lee grounded out three times, ending his career-best 19-game hitting streak. It was the longest active streak in the majors. Right-hander Quinn Priester (5-2, 3.46 ERA) starts for Milwaukee on Sunday against Minnesota right-hander David Festa (1-1, 4.78 ERA).

Reds' timely hits lead to victory over Twins
June 18 - TJ Friedl's two-out, two-run double in the sixth inning rallied the Cincinnati Reds past the visiting Minnesota Twins 6-5 in the opener of a three-game series Tuesday. Will Benson added a two-run double while Jake Fraley chipped in a two-run single for the Reds, who scored all six runs with two outs. Scott Barlow (2-0) threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings in relief of hard-luck starter Andrew Abbott, who left after 5 2/3 innings having allowed five runs, only one earned. Emilio Pagan worked around two walks to pitch a scoreless ninth for his 17th save in 19 chances. Twins reliever Brock Stewart (1-1) gave up three straight two-out hits in the sixth after Harrison Bader's two-out, three-run homer off the glove of Fraley in right put Minnesota up 5-4 in the top of the inning. Ryan Jeffers and Trevor Larnach each had two hits for the Twins, who lost their fifth straight and ninth in 11 games. Jeffers left in the fifth inning with a bruise on his right hand. X-rays were negative. Twins center fielder Byron Buxton robbed Benson of a home run to end the second inning and belted his 12th homer of the year to nearly the same spot in the third against Abbott. Minnesota's right-handed starter David Festa set down the first eight Cincinnati batters before walking Matt McLain with two outs in the third. He walked two more batters in the fourth, but this time Benson got the better of Festa, lining a 3-2 fastball to the gap in left-center for Cincinnati's first hit, a two-run double that put the Reds up 2-1. Aided by a passed ball on catcher Jeffers on a third strike that would've ended the inning, the Reds tacked on two more runs on Fraley's single to right. Third baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand threw high to first base on a two-out grounder by Ty France in the sixth. That opened the door for an RBI single from Larnach and the go-ahead three-run homer by Bader. The game was halted 15 minutes prior to the bottom of the third, as home plate umpire Tony Randazzo left the game in concussion protocol after taking a foul tip from Tyler Stephenson to the mask in the bottom of the second. Second base umpire Clint Vondrak took Randazzo's place behind the plate. --Field Level Media

Twins scratch Byron Buxton from series finale vs. Astros after being hit by pitch
HOUSTON (AP) — Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton was scratched from Sunday's lineup a day after being hit on the left elbow by a pitch. Buxton left Saturday's game against the Houston Astros with a bruised elbow after Hunter Brown's throw in the sixth inning of a 3-2 loss. Advertisement Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said after the game they didn't believe the injury was serious and that Buxton was listed as day to day. Buxton — scratched about an hour before first pitch — had been scheduled to lead off and play center field in the series finale. He was replaced in center field by Harrison Bader. Buxton is batting .273 with 11 homers and 41 RBIs in 54 games this season. He missed about two weeks last month after sustaining a concussion in a collision with Carlos Correa. ___ AP MLB: The Associated Press
