Twins Hand Detroit 7-5 Loss
Behind the hitting of Sojuro Iwamoto, the Minnesota Twins stopped the Detroit Tigers, 7-5. Iwamoto was 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Twins. Bob McDonald, now 2-0, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 1.2 innings. The Tigers drop to 7-7 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2025 season.

Francisco Mejia, who is tied for 8th in the AL in bases on balls with 7, helped out the Minnesota cause in the bottom of the fourth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the catcher was 1 for 4.

Mejia expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."
