 The Twins have scored at least two runs in each of their last 32 games, the longest active streak in the majors.

 Of Miguel Sano's 28 hits this season, 20 have gone for extra bases (71.4 percent), the highest percentage in the majors among batting average qualifiers.

 Randy Dobnak allowed six earned runs in 4.1 innings in his last start, matching the number of earned runs he allowed over his first six starts of the season combined (30.1 IP).

 The Tigers have gone from a .292 winning percentage last season to a .500 mark so far this year. The last MLB team to have a 200+ point jump from one season to the next was the Diamondbacks from 1998 to 1999 (.401 to .617).

 Jonathan Schoop has 16 more home runs (141) than walks (125) in his career, the largest difference for any player in MLB history.

 Matthew Boyd is allowing an average of 1.68 home runs per nine innings over his career, the highest rate in MLB history among pitchers with at least 125 starts.

After having a six-game winning streak snapped Wednesday at Milwaukee, the revitalized Detroit Tigers begin a five-game series in Minneapolis with a doubleheader Friday afternoon against the Minnesota Twins.
Left-hander Matthew Boyd (1-4, 7.27 ERA) will start the opener for the Tigers while Minnesota will counter with right-hander Randy Dobnak (5-2, 3.12) in a rematch of a pitching matchup that took place last Saturday in Detroit in a game won by the Tigers, 8-2.

Tigers, Twins open five-game series with doubleheader

MINNEAPOLIS (AP)  Marwin Gonzalez singled home Willians Astudillo in the eighth inning, and the Minnesota Twins rallied to beat the Detroit Tigers 3-2 and sweep Friday's doubleheader.
Astudillo served as Minnesota's automatic runner at second in the eighth inning of the seven-inning game. Gonzalez hit a grounder up the middle, and Detroit center fielder Derek Hill, making his major league debut, bobbled the ball, allowing Astudillo to score easily.
