Cincinnati Upended, 5-4, by Minnesota
Minnesota registered a win at Target Field by beating the Cincinnati Stars, 5-4. Pitcher Justin Steele was one reason why the Millers triumphed. Minnesota reliever Ryan Walker picked up the win, upping his record to 4-2. Jack Dashwood was saddled with the loss. Taj Bradley earned his 4th save in 4 chances.

Minnesota took a 5-3 lead on Seiya Suzuki's 17th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Suzuki hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Cincinnati pitcher Jack Dashwood visibly frustrated.

"We did enough to win," said Suzuki.

Today's win puts Minnesota at 57-51, while Cincinnati falls to 52-56.
