DaShawn Keirsey Jr. and Byron Buxton hit back-to-back home runs and Chris Paddack pitched seven shutout innings, but the Minnesota Twins' 11th consecutive victory was soured by a collision among teammates when they beat the host Baltimore Orioles 4-0 on Thursday afternoon.

DaShawn Keirsey Jr. and Byron Buxton hit Minnesota's first back-to-back homers this season, Chris Paddack pitched seven shutout innings and the Twins extended their winning streak to 11 games with a 4-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles.

Pitching for the Twins is Chris Paddack. He has a 4.76 ERA. The Orioles should be able to get to him. Maybe they even will, and then it will be up to the pitchers to hold on. They proved incapable of that in yesterday’s doubleheader and will probably fail many times more before the season’s end.
