Carlos Gomez overcomes mistakes to boost Brewers

Minneapolis — The good and the bad of Carlos Gomez was on full display in front of a sellout crowd Saturday afternoon at Target Field.

The mercurial centerfielder made a couple of bad base-running mistakes early on, only to atone with a game-clinching, two-RBI single in the seventh inning to lift the Milwaukee Brewers over the Minnesota Twins, 4-2.

Gomez then added some insurance with an RBI double in the ninth, leaving him with four hits and a walk and three RBI in five plate appearances against his former club.

His big day coincided with a strong start from another former Twin, Matt Garza.
