Braxton Ashcraft dominated with 11 strikeouts and zero walks, leading the Pirates to a 9-3 rout of the Twins and completing a series sweep. O’Hearn and Gonzales blasted homers, including O’Hearn’s first since returning from injury, while a five-run fifth inning sealed the win. The Twins’ five-game losing streak continues as Zebby Matthews struggled. Brooks Lee’s homers couldn’t save them. Pirates head to Houston next; Twins face the White Sox.
