MINNEAPOLIS - A potentially awful road trip turned around quickly for the Milwaukee Brewers. Pinch-hitter George Kottaras capped a four-run ninth inning with a a go-ahead RBI single that gave the Milwaukee Brewers an 8-7 win over the Minnesota Twins on Saturday night. The Twins blew a 7-0 lead that they built on 13 hits in four innings. They had one hit the rest of the way. Trailing 7-4, Milwaukee had three straight singles to open the ninth against closer Matt Capps (2-4). Nyjer Morgan then hit a two-out double high off the right-field wall to score the tying runs. "He put a nice pitch low and away and I just happened to get the sweet spot of the bat on it," said Morgan, who was a single shy of hitting for the cycle on his 31st birthday. "I thought I put it in the seats." Morgan scored when Kottaras grounder went through the hole between second baseman Alexi Casilla and the bag, creating a roar by the thousands of Milwaukee fans that drowned out the boos of the Minnesota fans. "You cant be successful here pitching up in the zone and thats what I was doing today. Its not acceptable. It sucks," said Capps, who blew his sixth save in 19 chances. Activated off the 60-day disabled list earlier in the day, Takashi Saito (1-1) needed just 10 pitches -- nine strikes -- in an inning of scoreless relief and John Axford pitched the ninth for his 21st save in 23 chances. "It was a nice outing for (Saito)," manager Ron Roenicke said. "I liked the pitches he was throwing. Thats as good as you can do coming back after that length of time." Ryan Braun doubled to extend his hitting streak to 22 games for the Brewers, who ended a four-game slide. Milwaukee, which was outscored 22-4 in a sweep at Yankee Stadium earlier this week and lost 6-2 in Minnesota Friday, is 3-9 in its past 12 road games. The Brewers are 16-28 away from Miller Park, but 29-11 at home. "From where we were sitting on this road trip, having a tough go and a tough go in this game too, putting a four-spot there against a pretty good closer to seal that win was awesome," said Axford. "You can just feel all the energy in the clubhouse right now." Jonathan Lucroy got the Brewers started with an RBI single in the fifth, Morgan hit a two-run homer in the sixth and Braun had an RBI groundout off Twins starter Carl Pavano, who allowed eight hits and three earned runs in 7 2-3 innings. "I thought this was a really important game to win, and the way we did it should be a big lift," Roenicke said. Milwaukee starter Chris Narveson struggled to find his rhythm, allowing a career-high 14 hits and seven earned runs in 4 2-3 innings. He gave up two earned runs on five hits in 6 2-3 innings to beat Minnesota in his previous start. Michael Cuddyer and Danny Valencia homered on consecutive pitches with one out in the third for a 3-0 lead. Narveson retired the first two Twins hitters in the fourth before Alexi Casilla doubled off the left-field wall. After a walk to Joe Mauer, Cuddyer, Valencia, Hughes and Repko had RBI singles to make it 7-0. "You have to turn the page on it," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Its frustrating and disappointing because we had a huge lead and they slowly got back in the game." Marco Estrada silenced the Minnesota bats with 2 1-3 innings of hitless relief before giving way to Saito. "If the relievers put up zeros you give a good offence a chance to catch up," Roenicke said. "I know we havent been doing it. Today was really nice to see." NOTES: Braun left the game in the eighth inning with a strained left calf. He is day-to-day. ... The paid attendance of 41,378 was the largest regular-season crowd at Target Field. ... Minnesota Lynx stars Candice Wiggins and Maya Moore threw out the first pitch.

The Uruguay international was widely criticized for failing to shake Evras hand before Saturdays Premier League game at Old Trafford in the players first meeting since Suarez was banned for eight matches for racially abusing the United defender in October.CLEVELAND -- A playoff contender in September, the Indians drew their largest crowd in almost a month and gave fans something to cheer about. Scott Kazmir allowed four hits in seven shutout innings, Michael Brantley hit a two-run homer in a three-run first inning and the Indians maintained their hold on an AL wild-card spot with a 4-1 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday night. Cleveland leads Texas by a half-game for the ALs second wild card. The Indians, who have won eight of their last 10, trail Tampa Bay by a half-game for the wild-card lead. "Theres nothing like that atmosphere," Nick Swisher said. "Weve got to keep winning, but Im telling you, man, when you have fan support like that its so easy to get up for games. Were so happy everybody showed up and everybody had a great time." Swisher, who scored a run, had a hit and walked twice, picked up the tab for a postgame fireworks show. Despite being in the playoff race, Cleveland went into Saturday 14th among AL teams in attendance at 19,317, ahead of only Tampa Bay (18,457), according to STATS. Saturdays crowd of 26,611 was the Indians largest at home since 26,870 watched a game against Minnesota on Aug. 24. "It was really welcome," manager Terry Francona said. "I think players probably appreciate that. There was a little extra energy tonight. This time of year that cant hurt anybody." Swisher and several teammates tossed miniature baseballs into the stands following the game. The Indians passed Texas with Fridays rain-shortened 2-1 win, moving into a wild-card spot for the first time since before play on Aug. 5. Following Sundays series finale, Cleveland hosts the Chicago White Sox for two games before closing the regular season with four games at Minnesota. "As close as we are, we can almost taste it," Kazmir said. "So you want to go out and give it everything youve got." Francona has a simple philosophy when it comes to dealing with a playoff chase. "When we win, were fine, when we lose, you hope," he said. "Its not do or die. Its do, or it hurts." Houston, a major league-worst 51-104, is on a season-high eight-game losing streak and has totalled just 12 runs during the skkid.dddddddddddd Houston is three losses from matching the club record set last season. The Astros scored when Chris Carter homered against Joe Smith with two outs in the ninth. Kazmir (9-9) struck out 10 and walked two. He had been 1-5 with a 5.82 ERA in his previous seven starts. He gave up Jonathan Villars single to start the game, then included a double-play grounder from Jose Altuve and didnt allow another runner until a single opening the fifth by Carter, who had three hits. Kazmir, who was pitching for the Sugar Land Skeeters in an independent league last season, has far exceeded the Indians expectations. "This is exciting," Francona said. "Knowing Kaz, the bigger the game, hes not going to shy away from that." "You definitely have to tip your hat to Kazmir tonight," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "He had an explosive fastball and did a tremendous job with his breakaway stuff." Cody Allen relieved following to L.J. Hoes leadoff double in the eighth. Brantleys home run capped Clevelands three-run first inning. Jason Kipnis and Lonnie Chisenhall also drove in runs for Cleveland. Paul Clemens (4-6) allowed four runs in 4 2-3 innings in his fourth start of the season after making 30 appearances out of the bullpen. NOTES: Francona said RHP Justin Masterson (strained left oblique) likely will throw a simulated game Sunday or Monday. Its possible Masterson, who left his start against Baltimore on Sept. 2 in the second inning, will be ready to pitch in relief before the regular season ends. ... Francona said he contacted Boston manager John Farrell after the Red Sox clinched the AL East on Friday night. Farrell was Bostons pitching coach during Franconas tenure as manager and the two are friends. ... Astros 3B Matt Dominguez (left hand) returned to the lineup after sitting out one game. He was struck on the left hand Thursday by a pitch from Indians RHP Chris Perez. "Matt said its still a little sore, but hes a pretty tough guy," Porter said. Dominguez was hitless in four at-bats. ...
