Colorado Absorbs 13-10 Loss to Minnesota
Ben Gruber was a vital contributor to the 13-10 Minnesota victory over Colorado. The Twins center fielder went 3-4 with 2 doubles and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times. Jonathan Tucker locked down his 5th save. The loss drops Colorado to 12-15.

Minnesota went up, 13-8, on Edwin Gomez's 4th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Gomez hit in the top of the ninth, made Colorado pitcher Chris Willmore grimace.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Gomez.
