Orioles 11, Twins 5
MINNEAPOLIS — Adam Jones homered twice and drove in five runs and Caleb Joseph added two hits and three RBIs as Baltimore went into the All-Star break with two straight wins.
Ubaldo Jimenez survived one bad inning thanks to Baltimore’s highest offensive output since scoring a season-high 15 runs on June 17. Jimenez (4-4) allowed four runs on four hits and four walks in five innings.
Jones had his first multi-homer game of the season and 11th of his career, taking Minnesota’s Kyle Gibson deep twice. Seth Smith and Ruben Tejada each had three hits for the Orioles.
Gibson (5-7) surrendered seven runs on nine hits and two walks in four innings.
