PITTSBURGH (AP) — Rowdy Tellez homered and drove in three runs and six Pittsburgh relievers kept the Twins in check as the Pirates beat Minnesota 4-0. Tellez turned on a changeup from Simeon Woods Richardson (2-1) and dropped it just over the center field wall with one out in the seventh for his first homer since March 31. He later added a two-run single for Pittsburgh, which has won four of five. The Twins managed just six hits while being shut out for a second straight game. Minnesota has dropped five in a row.
