Miranda's solo homer tied the game, and he drove in the go-ahead run with a double in the eighth.
Miranda has certainly been on a hot streak, and he had the two biggest hits of the day for the Twins as they rallied for a 4-3 victory over the Houston Astros Sunday afternoon in Houston.
Miranda’s RBI double in the eighth inning off Astros reliever and former Twin Ryan Pressly brought Manny Margot for the go-ahead run to lead the Twins to the victory.And with the Twins trailing 3-2 in the sixth inning, Miranda knotted the game up with his 406-foot solo homer to left-center field, his sixth home run of the year.
But the Astros worked their way into the lead, first cutting their deficit in half with Victor Caratini’s 417-foot homer off Twins starter Simeon Woods Richards in the bottom of the second.Woods Richardson only gave up the three runs off those two homers, allowing three hits in all while fanning six across 4 1/3 innings.
Caleb Thielbar, Jorge Alcala, Steven Okert, Griffen Jax and Jhoan Duran combined to toss 4 2/3 scoreless innings the rest of the way, allowing just three hits while fanning a pair.Duran sent Caratini, Jose Altuve and Jon Singleton down in order to pick up the save.
