Twins' offense strikes early against Liriano
Mauer's bases-clearing single 0:26 5/19/15: Joe Mauer singles with the bases loaded and all three runners come in to score to give the Twins a 5-0 lead When Liriano is on, he's one of the best lefties in baseball, but when he's off like he was Tuesday night, it can get ugly in a hurry.
"Against a guy like Frankie, who we know and have seen be effective, jumping out early was big for us," third baseman Trevor Plouffe said. "We knew we had to get him early in the count."
