MSU SOCCER
MINOT, N.D. (MSU) – The Minot State women’s soccer team hit the turf at First Western Bank Field at Herb Parker Stadium for some friendly exhibition action in a tune-up for the upcoming season. The Beavers hosted the University of Winnipeg on a sunny, sweltering Tuesday afternoon in an 80-minute exhibition that the Wesmen won 1-0 as the visitors scored a late goal for the victory. Maddie Elliott led the way defensively with six saves in goal on the day, while Morgen Fried had three shots to lead the offense. The Beavers now get a week-and-a-half off practice and prepare for their next exhibition on Saturday, August 26, when they host the Magic City Legends at 5 p.m. Minot State officially opens the season on the road Sunday, Sept. 3, playing a non-conference game at NSIC foe Minnesota Crookston.

TWINS-TIGERS
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Matt Wallner hit a grand slam to cap a five-run sixth inning and the Minnesota Twins overshadowed another milestone homer by Miguel Cabrera in a 5-3 win against the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night. Wallner’s slam — his first in the Majors and the ninth homer in 38 games for the rookie — erased the early deficit provided by Cabrera. Cabrera hit a two-run homer in the second for his 509th career home run, equaling former teammate Gary Sheffield for 26th on the all-time list with just his second homer of the season. Cabrera is two home runs behind Mel Ott for 25th all-time and his 1,867 RBIs are one behind Ott for a tie for 11th in history. Cabrera passed Robin Yount (3,142) for 20th on the all-time hit list against the Twins last week in Detroit. Dylan Floro (4-5) earned his first win with Minnesota after being acquired from Miami before the trade deadline with a scoreless inning of relief. Jhoan Duran allowed a solo homer to Spencer Torkelson but recorded his 22nd save.
Before his final series at Target Field, the Twins presented Cabrera with gifts to honor his coming retirement. Cabrera was presented with a $5,000 donation to his foundation. The Twins also gave Cabrera a custom fishing pole, tackle box and No. 24-branded fishing hat, as well as a silver, engraved hockey stick. In 241 games against Minnesota, Cabrera has hit .304 with 47 homers and 169 RBIs. The homers and RBI are the second most for Cabrera against any team, only trailing his totals against Cleveland.
