Jose Godoy hit a two-run homer and Jermaine Palacios added a solo shot for the Saints, who improved to 7-2 in June and pulled within a game of .500 at 28-29. Kirilloff, Godoy and Palacios each had two hits, and Kirilloff is now hitting .339 at Class AAA.
Twins righthander Josh Winder struggled in a rehab start, opening the game by giving up a home run to Andrew Stevenson. Ildemaro Vargas doubled, then scored one out later on a double by Jake Noll. Winder then loaded the bases by hitting one batter and walking another, but he struck out Lucius Fox and Adrian Sanchez to end his night.
