Clubs third homerBrown went 3-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 13-12 extra-inning win over the Twins.
ImpactIt was the best performance of the year from the 28-year-old, who connected on his third homer of the season in the third inning off Kenta Maeda. Brown should continue to spot into the lineup against tough righties even with Stephen Piscotty back in action, thanks in large part to his .300/.382/.633 slash line through 10 games.

ImpactThe first baseman went yard twice against Kenta Maeda, helping to chase the right-hander from the game after only three innings. Olson has been on fire lately, hitting safely in seven straight games and going 11-for-26 (.423) with five homers and nine RBI.

Hit hard in no-decisionMontas didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 13-12 extra-inning win over the Twins, surrendering six runs on nine hits -- including three home runs -- over four innings. H...
ImpactThe right-hander tossed 56 of 76 pitches for strikes but his command within the zone left a lot to be desired, as he served up three doubles in addition to two blasts by Nelson Cruz and one by Josh Donaldson. Montas will drag a 6.75 ERA and more palatable 20:5 K:BB through 18.2 innings into his next start Tuesday in Tampa Bay.

Four hits in Wednesday's lossPolanco went 4-for-6 with two runs, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 13-12 extra-inning loss to the A's.
ImpactAll four hits were singles, but Polanco still got his share of the production in a wild affair. The infielder has struggled to get into a groove at the plate to begin the season, but Wednesday's performance boosted his slash line to .212/.274/.258.

Nearly plays hero WednesdayBuxton went 3-for-6 with a double, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 13-12 extra-inning loss to the A's.
ImpactIt looked like Buxton had given the Twins the win when he took Lou Trivino deep in the top of the 10th inning, but Minnesota's infield defense fell apart in the bottom half of the frame. Buxton continues to rake when he's in the lineup, and through 12 games he's hitting .432 (19-for-44) with six homers, one steal, 10 runs and 11 RBI.
