Millers Earn 9-6 Home Win
The Minnesota Millers racked up a win at Target Field, bumping off the Houston Titans, 9-6. Reynaldo Lopez, who started for Minnesota, pitched effectively for his team. Lopez picked up the win for Minnesota, going 8 innings. He gave up 1 run on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 7-6. Minnesota improves to 62-49 with the win. They lead their division by 2 games.

Nick Ahmed had a big run-scoring double for the Millers in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Minnesota leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he got a slider from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Dane Dunning and swatted a double to center. It was his 12th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Millers ahead, 2-0.

"Reynaldo did a heck of a job," said Minnesota manager Pierre Duschesnau.
