It was the 13th come-from-behind victory for the Brewers, who were outhit 7-5 but improved to 8-1 in their last nine games.

Chourio went 2 for 4, including a double in the eighth, to raise his average to 0.318 since returning from a broken hand suffered during the World Baseball Classic. His

Trevor Larnach gave the Twins a 1-0 lead in the third inning with a 363-foot two-out homer.

The Brewers tied it in the fourth when Luis Rengifo's grounder to third sneaked under Royce Lewis' glove and allowed Brice Turang to score.

Connor Prielipp (1-2) allowed two runs — one earned — and three hits in six innings with eight strikeouts and two walks. Kody Clemens led the Twins with two hits.

RHP Bailey Ober (4-2, 3.46) will start for the Twins in the series finale. The Brewers had not yet announced a starter.
