It’s safe to say the Twins’ star found his swing.

Byron Buxton homered for the third time in four games and Ryan Jeffers hit a go-ahead, two-run drive that led the Minnesota Twins over the Toronto Blue Jays 7- 1 on Thursday night in the opener of a four-game series. Daulton Varsho homered off Bailey Ober (3-1) in the fourth and Jeffers put the Twins ahead to stay at 2-1 in the bottom half against Kevin Gausman (2-2). Buxton homered two innings later, his team-leading eighth, and Austin Martin added an RBI single later in the sixth.

This stat shows one major reason for the Minnesota Twins' recent rough stretch.
