The Twins were one out away from a win in the top of the ninth, but closer Kevin Jepsen gave up a solo shot to Mike Napoli to deep left field. It came on a 1-0 fastball from Jepsen, and Napoli was able to hammer it a projected 442 feet, per Statcast™. Jepsen ended up with the win despite blowing the save.
The homer spoiled a strong outing from Ricky Nolasco, who surprisingly has been Minnesota's best starter early this season.
