Kirilloff went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 8-7 win over Cleveland.

The 23-year-old gave Minnesota its first lead of the game with his third-inning homer. Kirilloff is slashing .260/.303/.442 with six home runs, 26 RBI, 16 runs scored and a stolen base across 165 plate appearances. He seems to be manager Rocco Baldelli's preferred option at first base versus right-handed pitchers, while Miguel Sano is more likely to draw in against southpaws.
