BALTIMORE (AP) — Cedric Mullins saved a run with an exceptional diving catch in deep left-center, then homered and drove in three runs for the Baltimore Orioles in a 7-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Monday night.
As expected after this kind of performance, he was asked which contribution he appreciated more.
“The fellas say the catch was No. 1 that they’ve seen,” Mullins responded. “I’m going to take their word for it.”
Jordan Westburg drove in two runs during his third career three-hit day, which came two days after his second. Ryan O’Hearn and Gunnar Henderson also homered for the Orioles, who have won five of their six series openers.
Dillon Tate (2-0) got Byron Buxton to pop out with runners on the corners to end the fifth and worked a clean sixth after Baltimore starter Cole Irvin allowed two runs in 4 2/3 innings.
Yennier Cano worked 1 2/3 scoreless innings and cleaned up Keegan Akin’s seventh-inning jam, and Craig Kimbrel worked a perfect ninth for his fourth save. It was the 421st save of Kimbrel’s career — one short of Billy Wagner for seventh all-time — and the veteran’s first time recording saves on back-to-back days for Baltimore.
