MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- Bailey Ober threw a two-hitter for his first career
shutout, leading the Minnesota Twins to a 3-0 victory over the Miami Marlins on
Tuesday night in their series opener.
Byron Buxton stole home and Ryan Jeffers hit a two-run homer for the Twins, who
have won three straight games.
Ober (4-2) threw 89 pitches in his third career complete game. He struck out
seven, walked none and didn't allow a hit after the fourth.
Eury Prez (2-5) didn't allow a hit until the fifth, when Trevor Larnach's
single moved Buxton to third to set up the double-steal.
Perez pitched six innings and allowed three runs and three hits with eight
strikeouts and three walks and three hits. Reliever Josh Ekness walked three in
the seventh inning.
Up next
Simeon Woods Richardson (0-5, 6.92 ERA) will start on the mound for the Twins
in the second game of the series tomorrow. Max Meyer (2-0, 2.79) will start for
the Marlins.
