Cron and Jonathan Schoop each hit two home runs and Byron Buxton had a grand slam as the Twins cruised to an 18-4 victory. “One through nine, we all swung it really well so it was fun to watch.”Minnesota’s 18 runs were a season high. The Twins have won the first three games of the four-game series, outscoring the Mariners 36-11. Minnesota’s offence started the rout in the second inning when Cron hit his first homer, the 100th of his career. “Some very long breaks for him, multiple very long breaks in only four innings,” Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said.
