Byron Buxton hits 3-run homer as Twins defeat Diamondbacks 13-6

In a high-scoring game, the Minnesota Twins emerged victorious over the Arizona Diamondbacks with a final score of 13-6. Byron Buxton was a standout player, hitting a three-run homer among his three hits and scoring three times. Twins shortstop Carlos Correa left the game in the seventh inning after being hit by a pitch on the right wrist by Bryce Jarvis. Despite the injury, Correa had an impressive performance, being on base five times with a single, two walks, catcher's interference, and a hit by pitch. The Twins dominated the game, scoring all 13 of their runs between the second and fifth innings. Minnesota took two out of three games in the series and has now won four of their last five games. Pitcher Festa received ample run support and secured the win, lasting five innings and giving up seven hits and five runs. On the other hand, Montgomery of the Diamondbacks, who had won his last three starts, struggled as the Twins' lineup capitalized on his pitches early in the game. Arizona faced a tough defeat, trailing 11-0 before making a comeback with four runs off David Festa, who was making his major-league debut for Minnesota. Despite the effort, the Diamondbacks were unable to overcome the Twins' lead. Arizona has now lost four of its last five games, bringing their record this year to 39-42. Looking ahead, the Diamondbacks are set to open a three-game series against the A's at Chase Field, hoping to turn their recent losses around and secure a victory in the upcoming games.
