Minnesota Slaps 5-3 Loss on Denver
The Minnesota Millers overcame a good performance by Denver first baseman Carlos Santana to knock off Denver, 5-3, at Target Field. Santana was 3 for 3 with a home run, a triple, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. The winner was Franco Aleman in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Brandon Woodruff took the loss. Jhoan Duran, who is tied for 6th in the UL in saves with 14, nailed down the save.

Spencer Horwitz had a big 2-run double for the Millers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Minnesota leading 3-2 and runners on 1st and 3rd, he got a slider from Brandon Woodruff, who finished 2nd in the UL in strikeouts with 203 in 2023, and swatted a double to right. It was his 18th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Millers ahead, 5-2.

"We were the better team," crowed Horwitz.

The win elevated the Millers to 37-34.
