Twins' Offensive Onslaught
The 5th inning was when the Twins truly took control. An impressive collective effort saw Austin Martin, Ryan Jeffers, and Manuel Margot driving in runs to extend our lead to 5-0. Though the Angels managed to narrow the gap in the bottom of the 5th with a burst of their own, that would be as close as they'd get. Our Twins responded fiercely in the 7th, adding four more runs to the tally, highlighted by Alex Kirilloff's timely two-RBI ground-rule double.![Rocket :rocket: 🚀](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f680.png)
