MINNEAPOLIS — Two home runs from Byron Buxton spurred the Twins to a 9-4 victory against Tampa Bay on Friday.
Buxton has now smacked five home runs in his past three games and six total in the month of June through seven games so far.
Batting second as the designated hitter, Buxton put the first run on the board with his second-deck home run in the first inning. But his fifth-inning homer to the bullpen was the one that started the Twins' onslaught in a six-run, six-hit barrage.
