Minnesota took two of three at Milwaukee Aug. 10-12, homering seven times in the three-game series. The Twins have homered in eight straight games against the Brewers, their longest active homer streak against any team. The Twins last homered in eight consecutive games against the Brewers between 2005-06, and the only nine-game homer streak against them spanned the 1994-95 seasons.

The Brewers have won three in a row, rallying from early 3-0 deficits in their Saturday and Sunday wins over the Cubs. Milwaukee has a major league-worst minus-28 scoring differential (4 to 32) through two innings, while Minnesota's plus-24 run differential (42-18) after two innings trails only Houston at plus-25.

Twins outfielders have hit 18 homers - second only to the Dodgers' 19 in MLB. Brewers outfielders, meanwhile, have six home runs in 20 games and only the Cardinals (five in 10 games), Indians (four in 22 games) and Marlins (two in 16 games) have fewer.

Minnesota leads the majors in scoring a runner from third with fewer than two outs via an RBI, converting 67.6 percent of its opportunities (23-for-34). Milwaukee, meanwhile, is allowing opponents to score from third with fewer than two outs via an RBI 62.9 percent of the time (22-for-35) -- the fourth worst rate in MLB.

Christian Yelich is just 1-for-17 in the first inning this season, and that .059 batting average is second lowest in MLB among the 74 players with at least 15 first-inning plate appearances. Only Oakland's Ramon Laureano has a lower first-inning batting average at .056 (1-for-18).

Nelson Cruz homered twice in Monday's 4-1 win over the Royals, to give him 29 hits, eight home runs and an AL-leading 23 RBI. In 35 August games from the 2019 and '20 seasons, Cruz has a .383/.448/.742 slash line with 13 home runs and 39 RBI.

Twins, Berrios aim to bounce back vs. Brewers
Right-hander Jose Berrios will try to snap a personal two-game losing streak Thursday night when he takes the mound for the Minnesota Twins in their rubber match of a three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers in Minneapolis.

Twins, Berrios aim to bounce back vs. Brewers

MINNEAPOLIS (AP)  Nerves didn't bother Ryan Jeffers in his big league debut. Minnesota's ballpark was empty, after all.
Driving in the first run of the game and directing a masterpiece by Jose Berrios from behind the plate, the lanky catcher sure looked like he belonged.
