Rosario ripped a 2-run homer in the second inning, another 2-run homer in the third and a solo shot in the eighth to join Bob Allison, Harmon Killebrew, Tony Oliva, Justin Morneau, Brian Dozier and Max Kepler as the only players in Twins history with a three-homer game.

Rosario’s bombs were part of an insane offensive explosion by the Twins as they set a franchise record with 28 hits in a 20-7 blowout win over the Mariners.
Look at how much mashing the starting nine did.
- Brian Dozier: 2-for-5, HR, 2B, 2 RBI
- Joe Mauer: 1-for-5
- Robbie Grossman: 2-for-6
- Max Kepler: 3-for-5, HR, 2 RBI
- Kennys Vargas: 4-for-6, 2 RBI, 4 runs
- Eduardo Escobar: 5-for-6, 2 RBI
- Jason Castro: 4-for-5, 4 RBI
- Jorge Polanco: 2-for-5, 2 RBI
- Eddie Rosario: 4-for-5, 3 HR, 5 RBI
And yes, you’re seeing that lineup correctly. Miguel Sano had the night off.
