Max Kepler hit a two-out, two-run single in the eighth inning and the AL Central-leading Twins topped the Detroit Tigers 4-3 on Monday.
The Twins have gone 6-1 in the first seven games of a 10-game road trip.
Trailing 3-2, Minnesota started the eighth with two singles off Buck Farmer (5-6). He retired the next two batters, but Ehire Adrianza’s infield single loaded the bases for Kepler.
Matt Hall relieved and Kepler lined a two-run single to center field.
Sergio Romo and Taylor Rogers retired the final six Tigers hitters, with Rogers picking up his 22nd save. Zack Littell (3-0) got the win after pitching a scoreless seventh.
Miguel Cabrera hit a solo home run, his 10th, in the Detroit first. Adrianza put Minnesota ahead with a homer in the second.
