Rosario singled in a run in a three-run seventh inning and homered in the ninth inning as the Twins overcame a 2-0 deficit and extended their winning streak to three games in their first series victory in a month. They have won four of five after losing 11 of 12.

Logan Morrison had a two-run double to cap a three-run seventh inning for a 3-2 lead and the Twins scored an unearned run on Max Kepler's groundout in the eighth inning after Leury Garcia tied the game at 3 with a single in the last of the seventh.

Shields retired the first 16 he faced before walking Ehire Adrianza in the sixth inning. Eduardo Escobar broke up the no-hitter with a one-out single in the seventh after Brian Dozier walked to open the inning,

Rosario followed with an RBI single that sent Dozier to third, and Rosario stole second before Morrison's two-run double made it 3-2.
