Buxton went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and another run scored during Thursday's victory over Seattle.
After doubling in the first inning, Buxton extended Minnesota's lead with his solo shot off Marco Gonzales in the fifth. The long ball was No. 4 of the year for the 27-year-old outfielder, who is off to a strong start, batting .421 with five RBI.
