Marlins Hurt Twins

     The Miami Marlins knocked off the Minnesota Twins 4-1 at Target Field on Tuesday night. The Marlins begin their final road trip of the 2024 season. 
     The Marlins have won four of their last 11 games. The Twins fell to two games behind for the final postseason spot in the American League. 
     Miami(58-99) blasted out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the second. Jonah Bride hammered a solo home run to left field on a 3-2 pitch for his ninth homer of the year. Four batters later, Nick Fortes drove in Derek Hill with a base hit into right field. Xavier Edwards followed with a double to left-center field which brought in Otto Lopez and Fortes. 
     Minnesota(81-76) could only get one run in the contest during the bottom of the third. Royce Lewis singled through the left side for Byron Buxton to score.
