Chris Parmelee had a solo homer and an RBI single in the Twins' 6-2 victory over the Tigers on Wednesday. The Twins beat Anibal Sanchez to avoid being swept in Detroit. Parmelee's homer off reliever Darin Downs was his first in 87 career at-bats against left-handers. The Twins have largely stuck with him even after promoting Oswaldo Arcia, and hopefully, he'll start rewarding their faith now. Another slump would probably get him removed from the lineup.
