Twins hang 10 runs on Tigers to blow it open in sixth inning

Luke Keaschall drove in two runs on two hits and Lewis went 3 for 4 with a walk as the Twins followed an 11-1 victory in the series opener with a 13-hit romp over a Tigers team (63-75) that has lost 14 of its last 17 games.

The Twins, who are second in the AL in runs behind Central Division leader Chicago, posted their second 10-run inning of the season and the 12th in club history, according to Sportradar. Minnesota had 10 runs in the fifth inning of a 16-8 win at Arizona on June 20.

Tigers starter Troy Melton (7-4) gave up the three-run shot to Lewis before yielding to Kyle Finnegan, who bore the brunt of the inning with five runs allowed and only one out recorded as the Twins sent 15 batters to the plate.

Jeffers, who homered twice on Monday, finished Finnegan's night with his three-run shot before Beau Brieske relieved.

Connor Prielipp (4-7) struck out five over five scoreless innings for the win in his first career relief appearance, following opener Andrew Morris.

Riley Greene returned from the injured list for the Tigers, who are 13-28 against AL Central opponents.

Up next Dean Kremer (1-1, 4.39 ERA) pitches the series finale for the Twins on Wednesday night. Drew Anderson (4-5, 3.87) takes the mound for the Tigers.
