Twins beat Royals behind Kepler’s blast

August 17, 2020 By Minnesota News Network

TWINS 4, ROYALS 2

Max Kepler hit a two-run homer to support another strong start by Minnesota’s Randy Dobnak.

Dobnak (4-1), the surprise right-hander who was promoted four levels last season before making a postseason start, allowed two runs, both on solo homers, in 5 1/3 innings.

Alex Avila doubled, walked twice and scored a pair of runs for Minnesota, which has won four of six after being swept in Kansas City last week. Sergio Romo collected his third save.

Hunter Dozier and Alex Gordon connected for the Royals. Rookie Brady Singer (1-2) allowed three runs and four hits in 5 2/3 innings.
