Game Preview

Since adopting what he termed a "see ball, hit ball" approach earlier this month, Minnesota’s Byron Buxton has been in exceptional form.

On Saturday night in Seattle, Buxton showcased his effectiveness with a double, home run, and four RBIs, contributing significantly to the Twins’ 5-1 victory. The series finale is set for Sunday afternoon.

Since June 7, Buxton has maintained a batting average of .364, adding five home runs and 18 RBIs to his tally, which has lifted his season average from .221 to .265.

"Once you simplify things and stop overthinking in the batter’s box, it really streamlines the game," remarked Buxton, who humorously mentioned spending his newfound leisure time before games enjoying a cup of coffee. "When I say ‘see ball, hit ball,’ it’s about focusing on having quality at-bats."

Buxton’s three-run homer in the sixth inning on Saturday extended the Twins’ streak of consecutive games with a home run to 18, tying a franchise record. This marked his eighth home run of the season and his fourth in the last five games.
