PITTSBURGH (AP) — Manuel Margot hit an RBI triple to start a seven-run outburst in the 10th inning, and the Minnesota Twins ended a five-game losing streak with an 11-5 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday.

Margot led off the 10th with a triple to center field off a cutter from Ben Heller (0-1), scoring automatic runner Kyle Farmer. Willi Castro was hit by a pitch for a second time in the game, bringing in another run with the bases loaded and no outs. Carlos Santana tacked on two more with a double to right ahead of a two-run single from Carlos Correa and another single from Max Kepler that made it 11-4.

Heller, who plunked three batters, has an ERA of 49.50.

Jhoan Durán (1-2) pitched a perfect ninth inning.

The Twins were shut out in the first two games of the three-game series after being swept in three games at Yankee Stadium. The Pirates finished a 4-2 homestand that included winning two of three against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Jared Jones went five innings and allowed three runs — all in the first — on six hits for Pittsburgh.

The rookie right-hander was tagged with back-to-back singles from Trevor Larnach and Correa in the first before walking Kepler to load the bases with one out. José Miranda walked to force in the first run, Correa scored on a fielder’s choice and Kepler made it 3-0 on a passed ball.

Henry Davis and Andrew McCutchen walked with two outs in the Pirates fifth. Bryan Reynolds snuck an RBI double off Twins starter Bailey Ober just over a leaping Santana at first base and down the right-field line.

Connor Joe then sent a changeup to left-center for a two-run triple, putting the Pirates ahead 4-3 and ending Ober’s outing after 4 2/3 innings. He gave up four runs and seven hits.
Kyle Nicolas hit Castro with a pitch and walked Santana to load the bases with one out in the sixth. Justin Bruihl allowed a sacrifice fly by Royce Lewis, tying it 4-all.

A fourth person has died from injuries sustained in a late May mass shooting in Minneapolis that also killed a police officer.

Mohamed Aden, 36, of Columbia Heights, died Friday from complications of multiple gunshot wounds he sustained in the May 30 shooting, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office said Sunday in a news release.

Aden was one of two people shot inside an apartment by 35-year-old Mustafa Mohamed, according to police. Osman Said Jimale, 32, died in the apartment.

Officer Jamal Mitchell was the first to respond to reports of the shooting and approached Mohamed outside the apartment. When Mitchell asked if Mohamed was injured, Mohamed pulled a gun and shot Mitchell several times in what investigators have called an ambush.

Another officer arrived and exchanged gunfire with Mohamed, who died of his injuries. The second officer sustained non-life-threatening wounds. Another person, believed to be a bystander, was shot and taken to a hospital in critical condition. A responding firefighter also received minor injuries.

A memorial service for Mitchell has been set for Tuesday morning at Maple Grove Senior High School in Maple Grove, Minnesota.

Investigators have not said what led up to the shooting or speculated on the shooter’s motives.
