Buxton sets career high for homers and Ryan throws 7 shutout innings as Twins beat Padres 7-2
Buxton and Royce Lewis each had two hits for the Twins, who took two of three games in the series. San Diego dropped two games behind the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West.
Ryan (13-7) scattered five hits and struck out eight. He threw a season-high 104 pitches while bouncing back from a pair of rough outings.
The All-Star right-hander allowed 11 earned runs in nine innings over his previous two starts.
San Diego dropped to 2-5 in its past seven games. Freddy Fermin and Bryce Johnson had RBI in the ninth.
Buxton sent a changeup from Kyle Hart (3-3) three rows deep into the left-field seats for a two-run shot that gave Minnesota a 2-0 lead in the third. It was his fourth homer in four games, surpassing his previous season best of 28 home runs in 2022.
Recalled from Triple-A El Paso earlier in the day, Hart permitted three runs in 1 1/3 innings of relief as the Padres went with a bullpen game. He hit Luke Keaschall with a pitch to start the Minnesota fourth, and he scored on a single by James Outman.
Keaschall and Lewis had RBI singles in a three-run fifth to make it 6-0.
Twins: RHP Bailey Ober (4-7, 5.14 ERA) faces White Sox RHP Aaron Civale (3-9, 5.26) on Monday in the opener of a four-game series at home.
