The Minnesota Twins beat the Baltimore Orioles, 5-2, Sunday afternoon at Target Field, with help from veteran catcher and now run producer, Kurt Suzuki, the Star Tribune says.
Suzuki doubled twice, singled once and walked once, which helped earn him a total of 22 RBIs this season. That’s twice as many as he’s ever had at this time in a season, the newspaper says.
