Paddack pitched 6 1/3 shutout innings in the Minnesota victory.
Chris Paddack pitched 6 1/3 scoreless innings to lead the Twins to a 5-0 victory over the Colorado Rockies in their series opener Monday night at Target Field in Minneapolis.The Twins , meanwhile, did just enough on offense to allow Paddack leave with a lead and then plated three insurance runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to put the game away.
They doubled their lead during the fourth inning when Carlos Correa hit a two-out double to right field that scored Royce Lewis, who had reached on a fielder’s choice. The Twins got some insurance runs in the eighth inning when Trevor Larnach scored Vazquez, who led off the inning with a double and was advanced to third on a single from Willi Castro, with a sacrifice fly to center field. Vazquez went 1 for 2 on the night with an RBI and the run scored.
The strong effort from Paddack helped offset a solid night form Rockies starter Dakota Hudson, who allowed just two runs off four hits while fanning one across 6 2/3 innings in the loss.
