Hunter Goodman powered the Colorado Rockies to a 7-2 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Saturday at Target Field in Minneapolis, delivering a career-best performance with three home runs and five RBIs. The win evened the three-game series at 1-1, setting up a decisive final game on Sunday.

In addition to Goodman’s standout showing, Kyle Karros contributed a two-run homer, while Jake McCarthy added a triple and scored twice for the Rockies. Colorado’s offense capitalized on timely hitting throughout the game, overshadowing a strong individual effort from Minnesota’s Trevor Larnach, who went 3-for-5 with a three-run double.

On the mound, Rockies right-hander Michael Lorenzen secured his first victory since April 24, ending a stretch of ten starts without a win. Lorenzen pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on seven hits while striking out one without issuing a walk. Closer Jimmy Herget earned his third save by recording the final two outs.

The loss marked Minnesota’s fourth defeat in five games, highlighting ongoing struggles despite Larnach’s offensive production. With the series tied, both teams will look to carry momentum into Sunday’s finale.
