SEATTLE — Trevor Larnach hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the eighth inning to extend Minnesota's home run streak to 19 games and lift the Twins to a 5-3 win over the Seattle Mariners. Minnesota set a franchise record for consecutive games with a longball, but it took until the late innings. Larnach drove an 0-1 pitch from reliever Ryne Stanek to right-center field for his eighth homer. Minnesota's 19-game streak is the second-longest in the majors this season behind Baltimore's 22-game home run streak earlier this month. Twins starter Joe Ryan struck out 10 over 5 2/3 innings. Seattle had won nine straight series at home but dropped two of three to the Twins.
