Astros Get Ripped, 16-2
The Minnesota Twins thrashed the Houston Astros, 16-2, at Minute Maid Park. Miguel Diaz was one of the batting leaders. He went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4 for Minnesota. Minnesota is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 5th in 18 games.

Diaz had a key at-bat for Minnesota early in the game. With the bases loaded, he hit a grand slam home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and gave Minnesota an early 4-0 lead.

"Enjoyed this one," Diaz told the Minnesota Observer. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
