Left fielder Riley Greene and first baseman Spencer Torkelson also added home runs of their own, combining for four RBIs on the day.
Detroit starting pitcher Keider Montero completely shut down the Minnesota offense on the mound in his third win of the season, only allowing four hits while recording four strikeouts with no earned runs in 6.1 innings.
