Lowe goes 3-for-4 to Ignite Millers Offense
The Minnesota Millers beat the Phoenix Firebirds, 12-5, at Target Field. The win was due in part to left fielder Josh Lowe, who was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 and driving in 5. Minnesota reliever Griffin Canning picked up the win, upping his record to 10-10. Ryan Pepiot absorbed the loss. Minnesota raised its record to 86-74 with the win.

Early in the game, Lowe had a 3-run home run for Minnesota. It was his 19th home run of the season and put the Millers on top, 3-0.

"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Lowe told the Minnesota Herald.
