Gary Sanchez, Twins
He hit a two-run first-inning single to get big offensive day started, plus an RBI double later.
BY THE NUMBERS
1 Steals of third base by the Twins this season; they haven't been thrown out stealing third since 2017 (13-0).
8 Singles this season by Sanchez, who also has 15 extra-base hits.
5 Victories, in six meetings, by the Twins over Oakland this year, their first season-series victory since 2015.
Twins shortstop Carlos Correa is arguably their best player and easily their most expensive one. He’s frequently injured and a payroll-strapped team is up for sale. It feels like the Twins can’t afford to keep Correa, but the same is true of losing him.
