But Brandon Kintzler blew his first save opportunity in nine chances on Cabreras third RBI of the night.Its a disappointing game, but its entertaining, Twins manager Paul Molitor said.GONZALEZ ROLLSAlbers and Dan Jennings failed to hold onto a two-run lead in the eighth, wasting a solid seven-inning performance by starter Miguel Gonzalez. Gonzalez scattered six hits, struck out five and lasted seven innings for third time this month. His 114 pitches were a season high. Minnesotas only run against him the first six innings came in a three-error third that saw Byron Buxton flash his impressive speed on the base paths.Throwing seven innings, its really important for us starters, he said.MORNEAUS NIGHTFormer Twins MVP Morneau went 2-for-5 and hit his second homer of the season in the sixth on a 3-1 pitch off Milone that traveled 402 feet into the left-field seats to make it 4-1.
