Brooks Lee had a go-ahead two-run double with two outs in the eighth inning to propel the Minnesota Twins to a 5-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday, completing a three-game sweep with their fifth straight victory.

Lee, batting with the score tied and two out in the eighth inning, laced an elevated fastball against Orioles lefthander Gregory Soto into left-center field for a two-run double. The Twins dugout erupted with cheers, and Lee let out a long yell as he stood on second base.

Lee credited teammates Harrison Bader, Byron Buxton and Matt Wallner for giving him encouragement, telling him to keep his head up and stay focused during what had been a difficult game for him. The switch hitter said he didn’t feel great left-handed and was ready for an at-bat from the right side of the plate.
