The Minnesota Twins tied a franchise record with eight home runs and beat the Los Angeles Angels 16-7 on Thursday to complete a three-game sweep.
The Twins— who also went deep eight times earlier this season at Baltimore — joined the 2005 Texas Rangers as the only teams in MLB history to have multiple games in a season with eight or more home runs.
Miguel Sano and Jonathan Schoop went deep twice for Minnesota. Max Kepler, Jorge Polanco, Eddie Rosario
and C. J. Cron also homered. Cron had five hits in the game.
Twins starter Martín Pérez (7-1) went five innings and yielded two runs and five hits.
