On Wednesday, Edouard Julien returned to the leadoff spot and hit a home run, knocked in two runs, and scored twice to lead Minnesota to a 7-1 win over the Giants, ending the Twins' three-game losing streak.

Joe Ryan gave up six hits, struck out four, and allowed a run in season-low five innings in picking up his seventh win in eight decisions. Four relievers finished up on a day San Francisco left 15 runners on base and went 2-for-16 with runners in scoring position.
