Just gotta be a little better than that, Joe. It was a Kyle Stowers homer in the second that did the only damage. Ryan matched his season low with four strikeouts, but he went without walking a batter for the sixth time in 17 starts. He’ll next face the Rays on Sunday.

This was a big game for Castro after a cold few weeks. He helped push across his squad’s first inning run, scored after smoking a lead-off double in the fourth and then chipped in another single in the ninth. All three of those knocks were hit at least 101 mph as Castro has enjoyed one of his best offensive seasons to date with a .798 OPS to this point. Also, he’s now regularly hitting in the heart of their order and will have plenty of chances as a run producer moving forward.

It took Duran just nine pitches to close the Marlins out, despite a one out single by Connor Norby. That could’ve invited trouble since the Twins were clinging to just a one run lead, but promptly grounded into a double play on the very next pitch which ended the game. While he hasn’t had many save opportunities this season, Duran is still his effective self with a 1.64 ERA across 38 1/3 innings.
